Remarks: Full frame close up of the powerhouse that the Bone is! Just an amazing feeling to be standing by the runway watching this beast rotate away on Friday evening.
Remarks: Close-cropped rear Port side view of USAF B-1B 85-0059, taken at the Avalon International Airshow late on Friday 04Mar2011. Grey livery and grey skies - again! The 'B-One' has taken off from Rwy 18, in overcast conditions before sunset. The wheels are about to be retracted after a very noisy take-off. The after-burners of the four General Electric F-101-GE-102 engines stand out in low light conditions. This aircraft (Code DY), is from the 9thBS/CC at Dyess AFB in Texas USA (A long way from home.)
