B-1 Walkaround Lancer Bone

The most detailed walkaround documentary of the B-1 to this day!! It's crazy long but full of tons of information about this amazing airplane and the people that maintain and crew it.

Would like to thank my friends Jeff Bolton, Justin Oakes, and all the Air Force Personnel at Ellsworth AFB for helping me make this video. This was an amazing experience that I will never forget!!

your access to these aircraft and their professional handlers/pilots is rather impressive

You know its gonna be good when the "walkaround" is 2 and a half hours.

[drsssssssss]

One of the most beautiful planes ever built.

Have said it before, and will say it again, this channel is a dream come true. Having real pilots explain, in detail, about their aircraft, is a military aviation nerd's nirvana. =D
Erik's walk-arounds are the type of material I willingly make room from my schedule to sit down and just watch!
Stellar work as always!

I would probably be dead before the Air Force allows a walkaround like this of the B-21.

Dude, they showed it ALL. Wow. Be sure and extend our thanks to the crew, we appreciate it!

I’m amazed that the military is comfortable discussing all the features and capabilities of this plane so publicly, especially all the modern weapon integrations. If they can share this info, I can’t imagine what’s still top secret. It must be some crazy mind-blowing tech. I wonder if the military’s willingness to share this much info is to mess with our enemies heads by showing them how advanced even our old technology is.

A most impressive tour of a most impressive jet!

DĚKUJI, DĚKUJI, DĚKUJI. Zrovna mám B-1B 1/72 od REVELLu nas stole, a tohle video mi moc pomůže v dokončení. Podkladů není totiž nikdy dost.

Love this plane. Never forget being a kid in 1993 and seeing it fly at my local air show for the first time. So damn loud. Was just awesome.

[muhammadiftikhar]

The aircraft design, shape & metallurgy is really impressive.

[zefdin]

Watching these fine young men explain basically their jobs is so amazing and impressive. These guys are what makes America great! Thank you all!

[jameslewis]

I love how the WSO said that the B-1B has a “pretty robust electronics suite”, which is quite an understatement, but is about as much as he’s legally allowed to say about it.

You're producing some of the best milair videos ever recorded on any medium. Really outstanding work.

As someone who has worked on this *exact* (yes, literally) Bone during 2000-2004 as a Jet Mech *and* APG, this brought back a buttload of memories. Outstanding video. Much appriciated!

Oh- and please don't call it an "Afterburner." The GE-F-101 uses an augmentor, not afterburner😉

This is the most thorough and detailed walkaround of any aircraft that I have ever seen. It’s extremely detailed even for your standards. Great job, everyone involved!

I was a WW2 fanatic when I was a kid and fell in love with the Air Force. The B1 was the coolest plane ever back in the early 70s, and I was so pissed when Carter mothballed it. Reagan bringing it back was when I learned politics and which side I would live in. This plane has been a joy to watch over the years and it's cool knowing that these airmen were not even born when these were built, as with the 52. This was incredible to watch and will take more interest into your work. Thank you!!!

Hats off to all you guys and gals for going up in these awesome machines, and the guys and gals who keep them maintained.

[Lee-in-oz]

One of the greatest aircraft ever built.
Thanks so much for the massively indepth walk through.
