Wings Over Whiteman Air Show






Today we had the privilege of attending the air show at Whiteman Air Force Base in Knob Knoster, Missouri. To say that we have the most awesome aircraft in the world is an understatement. Whiteman houses not one or two of the B-2 Stealth Bombers. They have ALL of them. Up close and personal they are even more intimidating than any pictures you've seen. And the F-22 Raptor is enough to make you tremble without even seeing it fly. When you add in the bravest pilots in the world there is no wonder that we enjoy air superiority across the globe.

So, is Whiteman AFB still on the "wrong side of the tracks" from Knob Knoster?

Literally?

Aren't those planes cool? The Raptor is so quiet it's scary!
G*D bless and MARANATHA!

Looks cool. Caught a few glimpses of B-52s when Wurtsmith was still open in Oscoda, Michigan. They are monsters. Saw them on the ground once and flying fairly low a couple of times.

Very cool, PF!!!

I'm going to have to get the family back out to WPAFB again. It's been too long.

Looks like the girls had fun, too!

Let's hope our air superiority continues for many years to come. Amazing photos, thanks, Pops.
I hope you're having an excellent Sunday.

We're the greatest nation in the world (sorry, Libs) and we have the firepower to back that statement up!
