Thanks all, when x1 went unserviceable and then the two held for 45 mins solid I thought it might not happen, (particularly as I watched one taxi back to the stand on Friday....) but it all worked out fine in the end!

Good video there! I was out at Red Flag last February with two B-1's attending, watching these take off nightly and staying on burner way into the distance for 6, 7 or more minutes after take off in the dark cool desert night was something to hear and see!

Awesome video.

They came over the house last night and Social media been littered with "what was that noise".

Provided an awesome demonstration as to why we can hear both the B1's and U2's in and out of FFD in North Swindon

It just doesn't get any better than that in 2021 for a military aircraft experience, especially if you're an 80s child and know this stuff is running out of time. Seeing them go up from north of the 09 end is something i'll never forget. Great video, and better than mine, cheers.
