Anyone staying at Kempsford by any chance?

With this bearing down RIAT have just announced a B2 Spirit on static. Just a quick question too people who've seen one on static display before; What's it like too photograph, i.e is it parked with a small army of security guards who'll keep getting in the shot or is it just like any other aircraft?

That's a good question Dan, never seen one on static display. They have always done a flyover and head back to Whiteman.

Yes to all.. I've seen it on static 3 times. Only once in the open. Other two times were in hangers. Maybe a little more lax over but I doubt it.

[f4nutter]

did'nt they put it on static live side ? so the only way and closest way to it was by the viewing bus ???
i see the JASDF are sending the KC-767J

[viper810]

I cant't wait. This will be my best RIAT ever.
