This Isn't Decommissioning, It's Murder

Item: This one's from the "Why the Air Farce sucks" department. One of the pinnacles of US military technology was the F-117 Nighthawk, AKA the "Stealth Fighter". Recently, in it's infinite...>cough<...er, "wisdom", the Air Farce retired the Nighthawk. Most of the fleet is now in storage at the Tonopah Test Range in Nevada, where they await what now appears to be totally being scrapped. At least, that's what the above photo seems to indicate.

Hi,
I've followed this thread for a while, and decided I should join up and join in because I like what I see!
These 2 pictures were both taken by me last weekend at Duxford in the UK at the Battle Of Britain 70th Anniversay Air Show.
Yes, that is 16 Spitfires in formation. Probably a once in a lifetime sight for me. The other is the flight line, complete with appropriately costumed pilots. Thought the black and white would make it look "period".
