18 hour flights requires a toilet in cabin.




Check out the big ass NUC button. this is left over from the cold war era, and now only the B-52 carries nukes.




4 in the cabin, pilot, copilot, offensive weapons and defensive weapons. this is one of the weapon specialists seat / ejection hatch.

The original concept and those first prototypes flew 10 years before that as the B-1A. It was then canceled and had its mission changed a few times before it was redeveloped as the B-1B and flew again in 1984. The B-1B is a much better plane but it doesn't have the top speed the B-1A did. Either way all the planes are cool as hell. If I were President instead of hanging out at a ranch or playing golf I'd probably get a pilot's license and be taking check rides in just about everything in the arsenal for relaxation. Nice work on the pictures.
