Anatomy of a B-1 Bomber Training Mission
Military.com 26 Dec 2017 By Oriana Pawlyk

DYESS AIR FORCE BASE, Texas -- After flying in Air Force transports, fighters and tiltrotor aircraft within the last year, my flight in a B-1B Lancer was an experience unlike any other.

"It flies like a jet," I said to the 9th Bomb Squadron commander, Lt. Col. Erick Lord (also the weapons system officer sitting in the offensive position in the plane) after climbing down the ladder back onto the ground.

Lord beamed.
