 | If they are only going to use three, I know of some pilots that could put them to shame in Bearcats.

| Hey...if #2 slid forward a few feet and placed his 'pit imediatley in the notch of #1's wing...and #3 did the same on the other side then.....hang on a minute...just rivet the ruddy things together. Couldn't get much closer than that ! Great idea using the B2 as an airshow perfomer...errrr, nope. watched one do a flypast at GOML2007 and even tho' it was directly overhead at about 2500 feet...could hardly hear it. Way toooo quite
