Well, I don't know if this may have been mentioned here yet, but 
the local air show folks just announced that they are 95% sure
they will get the B2 here for the June (15,16, & 17) Aerospace
America (their name, not mine).  In addition, the organizer has
some ties to the Russian aerobatics folks and has apparently 
convinced them (and their military) to bring over the BIG transport.
I don't have the paper here in front of me, (so I don't have the
exact designations) but the Russians are also suppose to bring
one of their fighters.  I believe it is the same model that 
crashed at the Paris air show.  Should be real interesting weekend!

The unique thing here is that this show is done at the local commercial
airport (which btw remains open on one side for commercial traffic).
