  2. It says, "Spirit of New York". Why?

  3. The B-2's name is Spirit. All of the existing B-2s are named after states. I think there are only 20 active B-2s, so some states missed out. I'm positive there is a Spirit of Missouri, though.
    Occasionally Whiteman has an open house/airshow and it's worth the drive. I've attended 3 of them and the last one featured the restored B-29 "Doc" which was a static display and later did a flyover with a B-2.
    It was a once in a lifetime sight to see. Google "Wings over Whiteman" for info on the possibility of a future event.
    There's also another open house at Cannon Range adjoining Ft. Leonard Wood occasionally where they do A-10s performing and doing live fire demos. Treetop level flyovers doing the "Brrrrt" is something to see.
