Last time I was at the Edwards show was on the 50th anniversary of Yeager breaking Mach 1. There were a few memorable flights that day; Yeager doing it again in a f-16 (I think), a flyby of the B1 at speed about 100 feet off the deck, and a flyby of the B2, the B1, a B52 and B-17. What a sight.
IIRC, the B-2 neither took off or landed for the show. It just arrived and departed without landing. They did have one backed in to the corner of a hanger, but at that time the rear was still highly classified. You could walk up to the front, but two MP's with M-16's were stationed aft.
