*OT* >>>Perhaps some F-117's (if they are still active) and some B-1's could perhaps join the fun?? <<<<<<

I am not a big B-1 fan and you did actually give me an idea. I wonder if Rockwell's stock would plummet when 90% of the B-1s go down in flames if they actually try to use that thing. Hopefully our generals are smart enough that they will make sure that there isn't even a kid left with a slingshot before they try to fly that thing into a live fire area. Of course, even if they do, they will make it sound like it won the war all by itself. What a turkey of an air plane. After 14 yars on B-52s (BUFF) and 3 years on B-1s, I can honestly say I enjoyed every mission I flew on BUFFs and have never regreted not having the chance to fly on a B-1. I like my desk job just fine as long as I am in a B-1 squadron here. I guess even that strategy won't work since I doubt that they would be able to get one in the air before the war was over. It takes about 3 attempts to get one airborne.
