    Had the honor to guard this plaine on my service in the belgian army. In 1991 it was the main atraction of the belgian airshow at koksijde. Saw this plane land when i was on duty. When it parked , a service van came to us and stopped. The crew said if whe want and take a closer look at it. One thing they said , please dont touch the plaine because it is so static loaded that you would be killed. When they release the stacic load into the ground whit cables.the pilots came out. Verry nice guys who asked to us if whe would be the guards for the plaine. Do you want to go inside it they said? Our mouths fell open, and we had the chance to go inside. Believe it or not. Never forget it in my life. In my 12 months duty this was one of the most spectacular things that happend to me.

    My buddy and I attended the air show in Oshkosh Wisconsin on a regular basis. This particular show featured the B-1 bomber which flew level about two hundred feet above the airfield. When it got to the end of the runway it made a sharp climbing right turn and hit the after burners which were aimed directly at the crowd. The massive thundering sound wave of those engines at full throttle and after burners felt like my body was in the ring with a Heavy weight champ. The words that comes to mind are pummeled and battered by oceans of air hitting me almost at the speed of sound. I turned to face away from the blast and it threw me to the ground. IMPRESSIVE. My buddy, who has since passed away stood 6' 4" and was thrown to the ground almost instantly. We both agreed this was the best show we had ever attended.

And 4 massive engines without afterburner each engine puts out 17k lbs of thrust each x4 but with full afterburner each engine puts out 30k lbs of thrust each x4 imagine what 120,000 lbs of thrust sounds like from this massive bomber as it’s the heaviest and fastest and largest payload of 75k lbs of freedom delivery dropped by the bone.

    When I was in pilot training at Sheppard AFB we would do out-and-back training flights to Dyess from time to time, and the taxiway took you right behind some B-1 parking stands. I always felt awed by the size and configuration, and a little bit uncomfortable because four of those engines could flip a small aircraft in a heartbeat with minimal throttle input. We knew the the bone crews would surely pay attention to what's behind them when starting or taxiing, but it still was tough to take it for granted.

    I was in the RAF in ‘96 and was part of a small team that provided backup ground to air comms for the tower at the IAT as was known before they added the royal R to the title. This plane was there that year, and we were set up on the grass quite near the part of the runway where they started takeoff and touched down to land. To say it was loud when taking off would be an understatement, it was beyond loud and you felt it in your core. Concord also made an appearance I think, as did the B2 bomber which was equally loud. It was the 30th anniversary of the harrier jump jet that year too, seems like yesterday but it was 28 years ago…
    Had an amazing week, even for someone who was in the RAF that should have been less impressed or more familiar with that sort of thing.

    Back in 1998 as a Canadian Military Engineer I was deployed to the former Harmon AFB, an old SAC airbase in Stephenville NFLD, Canada to be OPFOR for OP MARCOT, a large NATO amphibious exercise. Our mission was to defend the airbase and for air defense we deployed the Oerlikon Skyguard LLAD (Low Level Air Defense) system which was comprised of four twin barrelled 35mm auto-cannons that fired at 1100 rounds per minute. We were zoomed by a B1 practicing runway denial that couldn't have been more than 100' agl with all four afterburners ignited. The combination of the Bone and the anti-aircraft artillery firing blanks was all the noise that could be generated at once in the world. A couple of our guys actually crumpled to the ground and were rendered insensate for half a minute or so.

    Thankyou for this incredible footage of this raptor. The focus on the rear of the aircraft makes for really interesting viewing and awe! The design and the engineering of the AC from this rear position gives a whole new dimension as to the complexity and detail of the design when looking at it. I don’t how how that AC holds those engines on those wings and in one perfect piece. What I wouldn’t give to have a few hours flying time in one of these. Thanks folks - I don’t get overwhelmed by the design of modern AC but this is magnificent. This is what proper money will buy - the best!

      When we were launhing these things. And the engines were running. We were not allowed to walk within 25 feet of the inlet. So the front and sides. And 100 feet behind the exhaust when on idle. You didn't dare go behind the exhaust when throttled up at all. If we needed to work on anything in the nacelle while engines were running. We would go to the wing tip and then walk along the trailing edge of the wing with our tools. And open up the cowlings. I was a crew chief on them from 2011-2017.
