Give it up for Americas fly boys, God's Angels in the sky :usaf:

Listening to the audio at the end a voice says, "You have just seen something that no other Air Force in the world can do! :usaf:

Considering these birds are more than twice as old as the airmen flying them, this is pretty impressive. More sobering, the weaponry they could carry on one such mission could
destroy the civilized world.

If the president orders the launch of the alert bomber strike force to strike they only have so many minutes to get the B-52's in the air from the time they get the call. Here is only one such strike force of many from American soil, it is a 15 ship MITO at Minot AFB, ND.

MITO means, Minimum Interval Take Off, these birds went down the runway at 15 seconds apart, sure makes me proud of The United States Air force because without them there is no America, without our fly boys our ground troops and Navy would be sitting ducks in todays world! And yes, I'm sure the Russians and Chinese have seen these before ;) but know they haven't seen the good stuff from our fly boys just yet and they know it :ninja:

It's pretty simple, if you control the high ground you control all of the ground and Americas Angles in the sky, our fly boys control it all :usaf: ...... :thumbup:

Those planes are beautiful...and so smooooooooooooooooooooth on the take -off.

Sorry that I don't understand how such heavy machines can lift themselves into the sky....I've tried to read up on this but terms like lift, thrust , drag ..just have a hard time figuring this out.

This is an exciting video to watch...each plane was right on the 15 second interval; I counted with each one.....unbelievable!

Thanks for posting it Ray!

Thought ya'll would enjoy the latest pix out of Edwards AFB, CA. Test pilot buddy of mine sent these. The cool part is the juxtaposition of our next generation capability fighter with the 53-year-old KC-135 tankers! After two years of living on Ft Campbell, and one year of navy school at Newport, it'll be great to get back to the AF next month!!!
