USAF Bombers! "Trifecta" Formation and Flybys - Ellsworth AFB Airshow 2022

An extremely rare joint appearance by all three US Air Force bomber aircraft at the 2022 Ellsworth AFB Air and Space Show near Rapid City, South Dakota!
A Northrup Grumman B-2 Spirit from Whiteman AFB and Boeing B-52 Stratofortress from Minot AFB join the B-1B Lancers of Ellsworth AFB for a special Air Force Global Strike Command bomber formation flyover (the "Bomber Trifecta") before separating for solo flybys. The B-1s added some extra flair with several two-ship formation passes and a missed approach, but unfortunately the fleet is prohibited from any of the famous high speed flybys these days.

A feat of engineering in itself is that they got 2 B-1's up in the air at the same time 💀 my favorite bomber needs some more love!

[@kylietravers3466]

🤯 the B-1B,stealth bomber,and B-52H flying together is so cute and amazing

[@AgentGilded]

I didn't know you came here! me and my dad live about 30 mins from Ellsworth!

[@brandonreeves5979]

That would’ve been so cool too see that show in person!

[@modelcarsandmore3979]

On a show it is really cool but in real life that would be the last thing that you see in your life….

[@clarencehopkins7832]

Excellent stuff bro

[@pigybak]

Pure awesome!!

[@ForeverFREE2024]

Amazing, amazing, amazing.

[@daftnord4957]

I made it to this show on saturday, it took 2 hours to get in and 2 hours to get out

[@claudioberriosromo7122]

Increíble ver volar a los tres bombarderos mas importantes de los EE.UU de las ultimas décadas en un mismo momento. Excelente filmación, abrazos desde Rancagua, Chile.

[@jackirichard414]

Hello. Cool aircrafts! 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

[@Thisisquail-196]

When i went to a airshow i saw a f16 viper takeoff and flyover many times it wassuper damn loud

[@pigybak]

Every time I go to Sturgis, I hope to see them fly. Been twice, no sightings 😔

[@daftnord4957]

I saw one while in Lead one time. They were relatively low, incredible rumbling sound and feeling,

[@ryanlarocca7312]

I live in lancaster. I see the B1 B2 Quite often.i just want to share that the B1 is one of the loudest most violent sounding aircraft ive ever heard

[@verdebusterAP]

The old solider, the hot rod and expensive supercar

[@marrqi7wini54]

Interesting comparison. What would you all the newer bombers that will come out in the future? B-21 and X-47

[@verdebusterAP]

@@marrqi7wini54 Ultra expensive supercar

[@Duvstep910]

refreshing to see the B-2 in the air; hardly see the thing except for documentaries

[@MM_in_Havasu]

How f'n' cool is that! I served in the USAF at Ellsworth AFB as a jet engine troop on B-52 G/H models and KC/EC-135 tankers & flying command posts from late '76 through mid '80. Still keep in touch with several of my fellow service members to this day. They can keep the weather about 8 months out of the year back there!

[@russvoight1167]

I was in the FMS welding shop from August 1976 to December 1979. Probably ran into each other. Who was your branch chief and supervisor?

[@russvoight1167]

Hope to hear back from you

[@jaredbrown3249]

These planes flew over the super bowl 🏈

[@pigybak]

Can the B-2 go inverted??

[@modelcarsandmore3979]

This is really cool to see but only in a show, because if you see them in real life that would probably be the last thing that you are going to see in your life…

[@spg5658]

So B1s can't do high speed passes at all at any show now? Since when?

[@AirshowStuffVideos]

Not sure, but the airshow director was clear that they were not approved for anything other than wings-out slow passes. It was massively disappointing to see them going slow all weekend :(

[@spg5658]

@@AirshowStuffVideos hmmm ok I see. Interesting. It's been several years since I saw one at a show. Hoping to again sometime soon. Was just at Thunder over Dover, which was very cool, of course! 👍🇺🇲👍

[@BullGator-kd6ge]

@@spg5658 Same here. Went to the ruthlessly hot Saturday show. Slept from heat exhaustion during Rob Hollands performance 😅

[@spg5658]

@@BullGator-kd6ge that was brutal. I picked Sunday because it was supposedly going to be a touch better but no. It was basically the same. Yikes!. But I just layered on the sunscreen and survived. I had never seen Blue Angels and Thunderbirds on the same day so I had to see it (I have seen them many times individually).

[@AirshowStuffVideos]

Dover looks like the show of the year - we are really bummed we couldn't make it!
