Yep Tucson, I agree with you, just an opinion.
Shouldn't have said anything to detract from such a starkly beautiful video. Just seeing that BIG MOTHER coming into refuel is awe inspiring. Then to see the engineering that went into developing that refueling receptacle, words can't hardly describe what great engineering went into that bird.
Yeah great and clear, HD video .....my guess would be it is just to show what it's capable of because if something goes wrong during aerial refueling it can get expensive in lives and $$$!
Now, a flying wing bomber has always been in the Air Force dream (maybe as far back before the Air Force even broke loose from the Army!)....way before the advent of jet propulsion ......they just couldn't get it to work quite right until computers actually showed they could do the job of keeping that thing in the air !
