Default B-2 Spirit Stealth Bomber Crash Video

Well, in addition to that we don't even know what the master caution meant
in this instance. It could just mean that one of a number of redundant
systems is malfunctioning. In most modern airplanes, bull**** items on the
master caution system are surpressed during the takeoff roll, however,
that
may not be the case in the military, where they may prioritise things
differently because of a different operating environment, i.e. people
shooting at you. They also don't fly much but spend a great deal of time
in
the sim, so they may have a different POV on that whole aborted takeoff
thing anyway. Most of the ex-mil guys I fly with didn't fly bombers, or if
they did they were anteeks, so I don't know anyone I can ask, but even if
I
knew one he'd only be able to pass minimal info anyway. "Yep, goes real
fast, over 300 knots"

Well then, just make up an answer as usual.
