I think the Blackbird and the B1 are among the most beautiful aircrafts ever build.
I was stationed at Nellis with the F-111A's. This just never gets old.
I once sat in the back seat of the B-1B. It was like sitting in the back seat of a police car, only with no windows to see out of, just a tiny 3 inch by 5 inch "day/night" indicator window on the side. I got claustrophobia almost immediately. The Navigator/WSO's on the B-1B have to have balls of steel to be able to sit there and perform their jobs.
They are taught focus by being slapped with rubber chickens while they work.
One blasted down low, less than 500 feet ? with wings swept back, making huge wingtip vortices, directly over base housing on Anderson AFB, Guam. Part of an exercise . Freaking devastatingly loud and very impressive
Go to
Same thing at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Best flyover EVER.
They were nicknamed the Bone, because the first ones delivered were a bone white to better reflect the flash from a nuclear blast. Dates back to the B-1A.
Or… you know B - ONE = BONE.
@@stellert69 you mean B + One = Bone
Also because being at its control while about to deliver a nuke gives you a boner.
Who could blame It? 🤣
AS a rookie designer I came on board as a draftsman on this aircraft. Working overtime on a Friday, then coming in on the following Monday to be told to pack up ALL OUR drawing to be part of the cancellation of the PROGRAM. Years later it was revived by President Reagan as the new iteration as the B1b. When I’d walk into the fuselage mock up and see this wicked creation because what is purpose was to destroy and kill. It appeared to be moving fast just sitting still. I was shocked to be in the presence of such a man made device. It was really created by those of North American Aviation, not the Corporate BIG FISH that but their label on it. -Stephen Skinner
It is one of the most elegant and bird-like aircraft I have seen.
B1 Lancer
This is probably the most beautiful bomber ever created.
Great footage.
Love to see the take offs and landings.
B 22
most beautiful plane ever made, in my opinion...
The B2 might be better looking
I concur, just beautiful.
@@kevinbaboolal4225 Obviously Sir' you have poor taste in airplanes. That B2 is hideous.
After all these decades, still a master- piece in design to me!
They are a maintenance nightmare

Congratulations for your Achievements thus far

The most beautifully designed/engineered modern(1970+} aircraft to fly. Just perfect in every way. If I could do it all over again....
The most Beautiful aircraft to grace our skies. What a Magnificent Lady. The Bomber who thought it was a fighter.
I’ve thought about it a long time, and the bone must be the most elegantly designed aircraft, ever. Just a beautiful aircraft. It’s pretty from every angle, and I am torn, as I love the blackbird as much, but I think the lancer is just the best looking plane of all time.
I see what you are saying. I’m partial to the B58.
I helped paint all 100 that Rockwell built back in the 80’s including the last white B-1A that was at Edwards AFB. I have been all over the B1 inside and out !!!
This bird is out of Ellsworth, South Dakota. EL on the vertical tabilzer identifies it as such. I was stationed there for 4 years as Law Enforcement I either was in this aircraft or was around underneath it during the hundreds of exercises we had on Mid Shift. I sure do miss hearing these birds wake me up every morning as I also lived in base housing... !
I was thinking that. About them being in South Dakota. I live in Buffalo Wyoming. And can remember see them fly as I traveled through Rapid city. Miss those military planes.
I’ve never heard an aircraft this loud on any airfield ever. It’s not only earth shattering but it gets you right in the gut, the sound waves cascade on each other. It’s just next level.
👎🏻
@@ahnaiazyu8588 disagree? Which other is louder?
@@aliray1165 *Clears throat* The Thunderscreech
@@warlynx5644 wow you might be right…..but I’ve never heard it. Does it still fly?
@@aliray1165 Thankfully no it does not
The best friend of a Front line German Soldier in Afghanistan under Heavy Fire. Thanks for safing my ass down there
I've watched one at the air show
and you would not believe that something so big can come up so slowly and quietly.
I remember feeling like my chest was going to implode when I was out by the flightline as one of these took off at full afterburner. That is one helluva loud, but beautiful bird.
What a plane! It looks to be going 1000 mph just sitting on the runway! Awesome!
As an airport employee for 12+ years the bone strikes me as a challenging plane to work around regarding noise. Engines even at idle has a penetrating hiss, and on top of that comes the APU
We were in Kandahar Province on the enemy supply trail at 6500 ft and got ambushed so we dug in behind the boulders and requested air support. We were advised the A10's could not be on site for 30 minutes at best and my response was we would not last that long but we would hold in place. The next thing I heard was a strange voice telling us to dig in place and that THEIR mission had been canceled, but could deliver lots of gifts to buy us some time and it was COVER ears time! When that B1 arrived it was only five minutes after the call. Most of us were visible elevated off the sandy ground when that bomb run exploded right in front of our now covered faces and ears! IMPRESED DOES NOT EVEN BEGINE TO DISCRIBE THE AMAZING DISPLAY BY A SINGLE BI. I HAD TO SET UP STEAK DINNERS AT A BAR HANG OUT BACK NEAR THE BASE IN SOUTH DAKOTA FOR AFTER THEIR 30 HOUR RETURN WITH A NOW EMPTY BOMB RUN LOAD AS A HEARTFUL THANKS!
Most Beautiful Plane Ever Built!
that sunset take off though...Awesome!
That shot was so cool I had to watch it on my big tv!
I was on the final paint crew when the B1-B was built in Palmdale, California. I painted on 100 of them. 😊
I'm a pilot with lots of hours over the desert..the lancer is an amazing aircraft...
One of the most beautiful planes in the sky.
And most deadly!!
One of the most graceful planes, ever, this Lancer.
@Hammerschlägen M It can do some fighter jet maneuvers. It is quite amazing watching this huge bomber do aileron rolls.
What a beautiful, magnificent bird! Graceful shape ... And it's a war machine.
One of the most beautiful flying machines ever created!!!!!
like the B2 sprit , this is and still are a magnificent plane
One of the best videos on aircraft that I have seen on RUclips ever. You didn't put all that music into it, or hear people in the background talking. One of my best scenes was seeing it head on taking off in the other was taken off with Vegas in the background in the evening . Great job!!
I was in Nam, on the U.s.s. ranger. Filled in for one of our crew. The job? When the RA5C Vigalante photo recon was hooked up to the catpult. And blash shield raised. In full after! Burner. Had to make sure what was known as the, " TURKEY FEATHERS" WERE FULLY OPEN. THAT SOUND? WAS A CRACKLE NOISE! I will never forget. Even with proper ear protection! It was, RATTLING!
I've seen some of them over South TX in low-level flights with their wings swept back. Awesome sight.
This is what I call beautiful. I find it hard to believe that it has 1m radar cross section because of engines.
The radar cross-section is more impacted by the general shape of the aircraft and the paint it has on it. The unique shape and the radar-absorbing paint are very good at making the B-1b look small.
That is one beautiful badass aircraft, so sleek and powerful, love it.

This bird outclassed the Blackbird! A Beauty! Beautifully deadly.
What an awesome aircraft. Love it.
Beautiful
A badass looking aircraft
Cool pic of it taking off at night over Las Vegas strip skyline
Waaaayyy ahead of their time when you think these bad boys have been flying since 86.
What a rush to have you of these birds do a full power "Lima-Lima" fly by. Felt the earth shake. One hell of a aircraft. Death from above.
Love the nighttime takeoffs.
A most elegant successor to the B-52
It's amazing how clearly you can see the wingtip vortices in slow flight in this video!
It's a dead ringer for the Avro Aero.
@@markwilson3026 jIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIiii7imnlkmmpjOOIOPIJIOOIO
simply the most beautiful
I'm glad to see that America still has at least one swing wing type aircraft still flying.
That landing gear best in it's class, USA quality❤
Bad to the BONE!!!
BBBBBad Bad to the Bone
Very well done Video.
Imagine a 5th Gen Stealth version of this beast
Used to love Marshaling them out and recovering them back in dyess AFB.
Congratulations from Brazil! Iconic machine
Awesome video of a hot rod bomber.
SUPERB PLAN.
The most beautiful aircraft ever built.
You are Sooooo Right....
Badass plane with Badass Videography. Crisp and superb job.
4:21 Really cool shot!
Awesome... sleek and chic👍
Thanks to the men and women that fly these beasts
Named the bone because that is what it gives to any enemy
Beautiful aircraft my personal favorite
How amazing these planes are and how they have been designed!
What a beautiful plane.
Didn’t know the horizontal stabilizer also was able to augment the roll too.
WW2 would have a different ending if this beasts was in the sky
Thats the most beautiful piece of ugliness you will ever see , like the a10 warthog its design puts its purpose ahead of its looks so you end up with the most badass effective killing machine with a touch of grace about it, lancer is beautiful have to say,i could watch it take off and land all day long ,id love to see one take off for real just to hear those engines amazing engineering
Yes. Those engines... are MY WORK ...oh yes👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿‼️
Some really good clips in there. Nice video of a nice aircraft.
Beauty is flying ... looks powerFul
Bombardeiro B1 espetacular parabéns
A beautiful machine
My favorite flying machine absolutely awesome! The Warthog is my 2nd choice brrrrrtttt💣💪
Great video thanks for sharing Australia
2..
Love this beast so much man🤩
The angel of death.............................beautiful aircraft
The LOB toss and variable incident
Não posso deixar de reconhecer é de fato uma linda máquina voadora!
Long Range Supersonic Heavy Strategic Bomber 👌🏻♨️
5 months late but, supersonic tactical bomber is more precise term. Since it was designed as such, strategic B-1 was B-1As, not B-1B. Also strategic bombing is taken by B-52s and B-2s.
TRY O COMPARE WITH RUSSIAN TU-160 AND YOU WILL SEE WICH HAS LONGER RANGE.
B51,52 is the backbone of the US Air Force. This majestic black bird is the most scariest in the battle field.
the B - 1 is a very handsome aircraft in every respect .
The B1B Lancer is a beautiful bomber, I want it to remain operational for many more decades, and never need to be replaced from the b21 raider.
Its a beauty
Great video! Just puts me in awe of the awsome power of American aviation!
American not the best.. Boeing is good examples..
There was on of these at the Oshkosh airshow a few years back. Oh my God ! The NOISE
4:20 If that was sunrise it must gotten a few people out of bed.
A tribute to all the 'B's' that ever was.
Fantastic video, thanx !!!
Is that Las Vegas in background? Looks so close to the military area...
Only a few miles
I hear they are coming out with an extended range version. It be known as the B-One-ER. 😉
Very very goooooood...
I've been into aviation literally my entire life and my parents took me to an airshow at Joint Base Lewis-McCord when I was very young and I saw one of these beauties. The pilot broke the sound barrier 100ft over us and let's just say my little 4yr old self wanted to leave right after that XD. Apparently the pilot got into a lot of trouble for that too.
า
Awesome plane and great video too...Thank you so much for your videos too...
Sherif.....

Great air show plane. The BUFF will fly at its retirement ceremonies.
Looks good clean burn engine s
American technology at its finest. No one can come close to our military might. USA #1!!!
Sleek and beautiful!
Keep them going please, maintenance🎉
It does not have the scary, significant look of the B2 but this has got to be one of the best looking planes ever! Beats the Avro Vulcan!
*Wow, thank you very much*
Que ermosura de abion tan súper importante de buenas tecnologías fue buena inbersion
ThANK THE CAMERAMAN/WOMEN!!!!!
