Over 35 years old and it still looks like something from the future. Who ever drew those lines did a damn good job!

Had the honor to guard this plaine on my service in the belgian army. In 1991 it was the main atraction of the belgian airshow at koksijde. Saw this plane land when i was on duty. When it parked , a service van came to us and stopped. The crew said if whe want and take a closer look at it. One thing they said , please dont touch the plaine because it is so static loaded that you would be killed. When they release the stacic load into the ground whit cables.the pilots came out. Verry nice guys who asked to us if whe would be the guards for the plaine. Do you want to go inside it they said? Our mouths fell open, and we had the chance to go inside. Believe it or not. Never forget it in my life. In my 12 months duty this was one of the most spectacular things that happend to me.

Decades later and the B--1 is still one the most beautiful aircraft ever built

I'm retired Navy we had the F-14. The most beautiful badass fighter of all time. But the B-1 is beautiful and nasty! Love it!

This jet doesn't get the glory it deserves, pure work of engineering artistry.

Those opening shots of the backend are unspeakably gorgeous. That is something straight out of sci-fi and just screams 'power and authority".

Pure MAGIC to watch these planes even sitting on the ground.

Never knew an airplane would look this awesome from the back!

I’m usually a fan of the aesthetics and sophistication of the stealth craft like the B2 and the F22 but this looks like some sort of boss level mechanical monster, it’s hard not love it, from the back it’s the coolest looking plane I’ve ever seen.

My buddy and I attended the air show in Oshkosh Wisconsin on a regular basis. This particular show featured the B-1 bomber which flew level about two hundred feet above the airfield. When it got to the end of the runway it made a sharp climbing right turn and hit the after burners which were aimed directly at the crowd. The massive thundering sound wave of those engines at full throttle and after burners felt like my body was in the ring with a Heavy weight champ. The words that comes to mind are pummeled and battered by oceans of air hitting me almost at the speed of sound. I turned to face away from the blast and it threw me to the ground. IMPRESSIVE. My buddy, who has since passed away stood 6' 4" and was thrown to the ground almost instantly. We both agreed this was the best show we had ever attended.

Still one of the best looking planes ever designed. LOVE seeing the intake vortices.

Such an amazing video, the B-1 was one of the very first plastic models I ever built as a kid, it was about 18 inches from tip to tail. Even by today's standards, it still looks incredibly modern, and I love its Concorde like design, the adjustable wings, everything.

I must say it's the most beautiful heavy bomber ever.

I was a mechanic on this jet for 6 years. It's a love/ hate relationship with mechanics and this jet. Standing next to it in full afterburner is a trip dood.

That's the most badass ass I've ever seen on a jet. The jet engines look like... weapons.

Back in the 80's I worked at an airbase. Where our facility was there were never any aircraft in our area, or on our side of the runway. One morning I came to work and there sat a B1 right next to our facility on a patch of asphalt that probably hadn't had an aircraft on it since WWII. Awesome being so close, and we got to go over and check it out. Beautiful aircraft! It was there for a few days and one morning it was gone when I came to work.

Everything about this aircraft screams BEAST!!! It stuns me EVERYTIME!!

Whenever the news bums me out, I come to channels like these and watch these videos of these amazing pieces of human engineering to remind myself that I'm damn lucky and proud to be born in the greatest nation on Earth: The United States of America. Godspeed!

That opening shot from the rear makes it look like a spacecraft out of 'Star Wars'

I used to jog near the runways about 5am before going to work at base ops on Holloman Airforce Base. Every once in awhile a couple B-1’s would transit through. Bird Colonels keeping up their flight pay by moving aircraft around…. Loud and cool is what those birds are. Stealth came through too, but you couldn’t see or hear them. --->

I remember watching these babies do bumps and circuits off RAF St Mawgan in the 80s. It was spectacular to see em roar into the sky and land from a Cornish Beach! Spectacular bomber! Saw the SR71 leave from there as well! Well chuffed to this day! What a decade that was!

Something that big has no business getting into the air. Something that graceful has no business touching the ground.

Possibly the closest modern-day experience to Concorde or the Vulcan flying over UK skies with four afterburners blazing... Wonderful.

amazing piece of technology. As an engineer, I love watching all the compartments close and seeing so much strike capacity in such a small airframe.

Какие всё таки самолеты красивые. Всем пилотам крепкого здоровья и благополучия!

I'm an old man and don't fly but I'm immensely jealous of those few who get to pilot those beautiful birds!!

This Bomber is an absolute masterpiece of design and technology, and the raw or those engines and how they create that unique tearing sounds is terrifying and awesome.

Man this is probably the absolute best footage I’ve ever seen of this beauty! Guess I never truly realized how mammoth these things really are! Thanks for an amazing video!

I was a B-1B maintainer from ‘87-‘91, it’s an awesome aircraft inside and out. I’m happy they are still flying them today!

This was awesome to watch. I've never seen a B1 so clearly from behind.

What a magnificent beast. Had the pleasure of seeing one up close a few years, back when one came from Guam and stayed here for Air Power Day. Had the pleasure of being woken up and shook from the bed, at 2 am, when it fired up those engines and took off that night too.

You want a treat. You should see the B1 taking off at night. Had a squadron of B1’s stationed at my local airbase. The sights and deafing sounds were spectacular.

Man.... the B1 is simply gorgeous!

Really really cool. Thanks for sharing this video. I visited Fairford in October as well to see these magnificent beasts!

I was a 2A53b, avionics, instruments, autopilot systems B-1B bomber technician from 1991 to 98. She's still a sexy beast...

There's a retired B-1 as gate guardian at the aerospace museum southwest of Omaha that I see regularly. Recently repainted colorful camouflage. Beautiful impressive plane.

Back in 1998 as a Canadian Military Engineer I was deployed to the former Harmon AFB, an old SAC airbase in Stephenville NFLD, Canada to be OPFOR for OP MARCOT, a large NATO amphibious exercise. Our mission was to defend the airbase and for air defense we deployed the Oerlikon Skyguard LLAD (Low Level Air Defense) system which was comprised of four twin barrelled 35mm auto-cannons that fired at 1100 rounds per minute. We were zoomed by a B1 practicing runway denial that couldn't have been more than 100' agl with all four afterburners ignited. The combination of the Bone and the anti-aircraft artillery firing blanks was all the noise that could be generated at once in the world. A couple of our guys actually crumpled to the ground and were rendered insensate for half a minute or so.

Love this aircraft. One of my favorites. Thank you for the footage.

What a machine! It has this futuristic look, especially from the rear. Almost spaceship like. And a bomber with four burners too 🔥. Lovely video, I'm feeling inspired by this one for the next B1s.

Thanks for the close up of the rear fuselage of the B-1! Have never seen the detail of sensors and aerials before! What a gorgeous Bird of Prey!!

Thankyou for this incredible footage of this raptor. The focus on the rear of the aircraft makes for really interesting viewing and awe! The design and the engineering of the AC from this rear position gives a whole new dimension as to the complexity and detail of the design when looking at it. I don’t how how that AC holds those engines on those wings and in one perfect piece. What I wouldn’t give to have a few hours flying time in one of these. Thanks folks - I don’t get overwhelmed by the design of modern AC but this is magnificent. This is what proper money will buy - the best!

Worked the engines and APUs on the Bone, retired now and every now and then I get nostalgic about doing the maintenance runs on these. Quiet hours ended at 0600 and we were restricted to idle, so at 0559 we were up and running and at 6 on the dot the run-up into aug (afterburner) would shake the base and set off car alarms across the base.

I remember when they were trying to get funding for them. Lot of congress didnt want or see the need for the expenditure. It turned out to be a huge success.What a machine..

So stunning and amazing detail of the whole pre-takeoff sequence

Actually an apocalyptic work of mechanical and aviation art. Stunning

Great video. What an awesome aircraft and it's great to see it close up. Thank you. ✌️😎

Such a beautiful plane, from the side, front and even behind. So awesome and powerful looking.

Absolutely fascinating video of an amazing aircraft, i reckon its a bit scary from behind it once those massive engines are spooled up. The bone is still the loudest aircraft I have ever heard, mildenhall air fete in about 94. Jeez that thing blew my ears

When they fly over the top of you, the noise pounds in your ears and the ground feel like it is shaking. Wow!!

I remember at an Air and Sea show in Ft Lauderdale 20+ years ago all these cool jets flew in and around the beach, including the Blue Angels. Great show. Then this thing rolls up and just blows the doors off, set off just about every car alarm 2-3 blocks off the beach it was so loud. People were left flabbergasted. It was awesome. What a machine.

From this angle the B1 looks like a freaking spaceship! What a beast!

Fantastic video of one of my favorite Air Force aircraft! I wish I could be there in person, but your video gives me the next best thing👍

Great video. I loved flying it for as long as I did. I sure miss flying an exciting aircraft.

Getting to see one of these in person is a awesome experience, it’s a truly beautiful aircraft

If you ever hear this airplane in person, you know how powerful is his noise, even feeling the vibration of it on your body, so impressive.

Cool video. That close up rear view makes look more like a alien space craft.

I’ve always loved the Bone. That rear view though 🔥🔥🙌

as someone who is in the engine supply chain (non-military, non-destructive testing), i am amazed of the comfort level of the crew. being that close to an engine is danger

Had the pleasure of working in Columbus, Ohio on the B1B. Ships 013-100, FIF upper skins left side. Boom !! Miller time.

Очень красивая машина! Только красивые самолёты летают красиво! Уважение.

Never ever seen this view of the B-1 ... As Stunning & Fierce as it is Beautiful

I remember watching these things take off from Kandahar Air Base. The noise they make is unbelievably loud. You could feel everything around you including yourself just shaking. Pitch black and the flames from the engines was unforgettable.

Какой красавец!!! B1 - идеальный. Ту-160 - элегантный. Оба самолёта - изящество! ))

I the mid 90’s we were staying at a guest ranch in eastern Wyoming near the town of Bill and B1 Lancers and B52s would make low level passes over the ranch at between 300 to 500 feet doing 500 knots… Very Impressive!

Cheers for the phenomenal footage of this majestic aircraft, very much appreciated and envious of your ability to get so close, what an aircraft, thanks

Good video! A bueatifull flying machine! seen from a different angle! Remember the first time I saw one in the raw ,30 years ago she took my breath away. the yanks have a certain style, which in my opinion is one on its own. Amazing engineering!

Beautiful footage of a beautiful aircraft thx for sharing👏👏👏👏

Apart from everything else the B1 is a truly beautiful plane.

Hearing this in the flesh was incredibly impressive. So powerful.

Thank you SO MUCH for this. It just popped up on my KZfaq recommended videos and you have no idea how much love the Lancer. Subscribed to your channel! My ex-gf in the early '90s had a dad who worked at Rockwell in SoCal and he had that famous photo of a B-1 doing a high-speed pass over water framed on his wall. One of the most beautiful aircraft ever constructed and I'm so happy it found its purpose during the Gulf Wars. It is an elegant brute with lines like a Jaguar!! lol. Thanks again and I'll be watching for more of your vids.

ABSOLUTELY OUTSTANDING FOOTAGE. Thank you for making my day. .Brilliant. Scott Somerset UK

Just by looking at this is amazing how efficient it operates

Nice coverage of a beautiful plane.

Awesome! I also LOVE the B-52 take offs, touch and goes.

Definitely defines one extremely badass flying machine. Actually no other way to honestly describe how awesome this video is. Thanks very much for sharing this.

The B1 looks menacing from behind. What a beautiful piece of engineering

That amazing thing absolutely looks like an alien spaceship from the rear. Wicked.

Badass bomber with sleek lines, totally a beautiful piece of art!

This is so crazy... i can even feel the power of the after burners sitting behind my computer. WTF !

Amazing video. It's hard to learn about some of these aircraft unless you can see enough of the aircraft to actually formulate questions to research or ask others about. These videos are so perfect for that, I am astonished. You can even see the air vortices (3:15 and 6:00) on the front side of the engines at the air inlets.

I was the machinist who made the titanium piece that holds the wings on.

The touchdowns are so beautiful

Awesome vid dude. Loved seeing the engines spooling up so close!

Amazing video of this mighty aircraft . Just looking at it warming up gives me the shivers . I dips me lid to the pilots ground crew and the engineers who developed this monster and to you for giving us these amazing views of a military aircraft .

😍 Never seen it so close-up from behind. I will never get that glorious image out of my mind. Bone, you have such a physique 💕

It's the loudest plane I've ever heard - by far. Goosebumps.

Love the ground vortex on the left inboard engine!!

I had the pleasure of witnessing and hearing Avro Vulcans land and takeoff when they visited the US back in the 80's, they would've given the B-1 a run for it's money in terms of noise level. The screech of four full throttle Bristol Olympus engines on the takeoff was quite the aural experience.

rear shot of this super plane is amazing..words can't really describe it!..

This was my platform when I was active duty USAF. Absolutely amazing badass supersonic bomber aircraft. She doesn't have a yoke, inside its more fighter than it is a bomber with a control stick. It really must be felt to be believed. This baby will change your breathing pattern and heartbeat at launch. And imagine watching this baby take off at night with afterburners. She puts out so much flame that it bounces off the runway and back up at liftoff. You may have missed this but she sucks in so much air into the intake that a wind-spout (tornado) forms. You can see one in the vid. Spent many a day using her APU exhaust to keep warm in those South Dakota winters. I miss her.

Thanks for posting brings back some great memories,

seen one of these at an airshow years ago. loudest thing i have ever heard. louder than the fast drag cars.

This is one of my favorites aircraft ever made...its like a Bird flying around....so stunning looking...🥇👌🏻☄️

Me encanta la aerodinámica de este avión. un adelantado a su tiempo.

That rear view is incredible!

Awesome, quality video this. Great job

So elegant! The Concorde among the bombers 😍

I love ground crew motioning you to move to the right because of the jet blast lol

What a beautiful aircraft. Piece of art.

Very cool camera footage. Thanks for sharing!
