There goes a few billion dollars.

TO HELL WITH THE DOLLARS....

Is the Crew OK?

 

[tidnab]

for the record the B1 cost ~ 300 million... not billions

you're probably thinking of the B2 bomber... which run into the billions...

hopefully the crew is fine... that sux regardless of what plane went down.... it crashed during landing at an airfield which means 1: rescue crew was on the scene fast and 2: it was a low altitude lower speed crash....

Did a qucik search as well. Was not aware they have crashed a bunch of times. Some crew have survived by parachuting out at times. Hope everyone is okay on this one.

all 4 walked away i think

Hopefully that wasn't Bone's ride.

Travolta knows how to fly

There was no crash. Just over-reporting by the media. An incident on the ground, everyone is safe.

Oh I feel so much better knowing it only 283 Million.

Air Force is the biggest waste of Military budget. The aircrafts yes if worth it, it all the other waste that goes on on the bases. You ass holes can't even remove your own trays in the mess halls.

Worked with AF in several theatres, beside the PJ and combat controllers, the rest are pampered pussies.
