Eagles just had a B2 flyover last weekend.  At least that's what they said, no one could see or hear it

You know you have something better - likely much better - when you freely flout the "old" tech for all to see.  They've been doing the B2 fly-overs for several years now, so whatever they have been using in the meantime must be pretty cool.

You won't see one doing a flyby.  Which part of invisible did you miss.

My father and I were seeing the sights and driving on I-90 near Rapid City, SD, in 1991 when we saw one of the relatively new B-1b bombers for the first time.

It seemed to be coming in for a landing so I took an exit to the north side of I-90 and went in the direction the plane had been going.

We ended up on a small road and didn't realize we were approaching Ellsworth Air Force Base until four guys in uniform with rifles appeared as we approached a locked, chain-link gate!

We explained we had followed the plane and they let us get a look through the gate at the B-1b on the runway for a minute before telling us to turn around and drive away.
