I must admit, i never really use the video on my camera much, preferring a still photo but, and its a big BUT :Wow: the quality of these cameras these days is phenomenal, and there is a lot to be said for a great video like this where you can hear the aircraft and the scanner and close up views, its almost like being there, and for those of us who can't get there its fantastic to experience it like this, thank you for posting, a very very nice job :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumbs: :thumb:
May there be many more video's posted :cool:

Are you sure, the B2 is clearly rotating close to the 5,000 feet to go marker board, it is using just half of the runway available.
