Hey I got to work on the first two B-2 ships while working for (then) Northrop Corp. in Southern Cal. (now Northrop Grumman). Got to build some really cool manufacturing technology. One of the greatest jobs I ever had. So many inventions had to happen just-in-time to pull it off. At the time, was highly secret and couldn't discuss. I saw many of the secrets revealed on Discovery channel the other day as they chronicled how stealth came to be and the role Northrop played. Still can't believe it when I see them flying.

Actually, as an Aerospace Major the B1 has a lot of stealth built into it, but not as much as the B2.

As a side note, I helped organize the the two B1 bomber flyover for the OU game in 2000. I didn't do the B52 last year. As far as i'm concerned if it makes a hell of lot of noise it's perfect. I remember when the B1s lit their after burners right above the Zone...good bull
