I hope you enjoyed getting a look at the mighty B-1! Let me know what you want to see next. 👇🏼

Taxiing a B1... simply wild opportunity. I don't think operations staff anticipated how excited that may even make your viewers. Great work as always!

[TheStopwatchGod]

Now THIS is a video I've been waiting for.

[GroovesNZ]

That was easily one of the coolest things you’ve done on this channel Sam - taxiing a B1.. epic man

[brucebarnes]

One of the most detailed and entertaining BONE docs that I’ve seen! Air Force involvement was the key! I’m an old structural repair technician that had the privilege of working on B-52D’s of the LINEBACKER II bombing missions in Vietnam, the now retired B-52G, and went to school to repair the B-2, but retired before getting to work on it! Was always in awe of a bomber with afterburners, especially after working on many different fighters with them too, i.e. F-111A, F-4D, E, and G’s!!👍🏽

Honestly, this is one of the best short informational videos I've ever seen. Zero fluff, zero ego, genuine excitement - brilliantly done, man!

[wackyB]

Flew Bones for 20 years. This video is spot on. Nice work.

[MWilso]

My crew and I were the maintenance team next to you guys while you were shooting this. If I knew it was for this we would’ve been happy to show you the maintenance side of the Bone. Pilots don’t fly without good maintainers. Also sorry for trying to kick you guys off the spot we still had a lot of work to do and we’re just trying to get it done.

[kyleregan]

Dude....this is what the people want to see more of. Giving us high production value and high quality shots is so dope!

[themindakviking]

The B-1B is quite possibly my favorite aircraft of all time. It has the payload, the speed, the endurance, and a surprisingly low RCS to boot. It is so slept on by people who only ever talk about the B-2 or the B-52.

I love that the B-1B is getting a lot of love, lately, and I hope to see the B-1R (BOneR lol) concept become a reality.

[DeepTechMechanics]

Taxiing a B-1 — what an incredible opportunity! I doubt the operations team realized just how thrilled your audience would be. Outstanding work, as always!

[Toyorippercrchannel]

My grandfather worked on the design for the istrument panel. When he died we got a package that had the experimental panels in it! It is now nailed up in our garage. Love this plane so cool.

[schorschgaggo]

38 years later and still one heck of a sexy plane!

[IanRossDavies]

I love how something so savage looks so elegant. Epic aircraft.

[FloridianAirlines]

Being in partnership with US Air Force is crazy, I can’t believe how much work you put into these videos Sam! I’m giving this guy crazy credit 👏🏻

[brndnh]

I've watched so many videos of The Bone, this one is the best. Clear concise and the interviews actually inside the jet helps.

[Redbikemaster]

I grew up in Tye, the town right off the end of the runway of Dyess AFB. I have many childhood memories of watching these take off and land along with the C-130s, which my dad worked on. Both have a special place in my heart. We actually had a family friend who was a B1 pilot and I got to fly the B1 simulator once and even sit in his B1 the day of his last flight when he got orders to another squadron. I still have the photo of me in his pilots seat.

[robbiepatty]

Born and raised in Abilene and the B-1 is a major part of my childhood. I remember going out to to Dyess with my grandad and watching them do touch and goes. Great video!

[richtrinko]

I was stationed at Dyess from '91-'94, and I loved watching them take off on full burner. Such a majestic airplane! Thank you for this video, brings back a lot of memories!
