Wings Over Whiteman 2010

I attended the annual airshow at Whiteman AFB in Knob Noster,Missouri over the weekend. For those who don’t know, Whiteman is home to the B-2 bomber.

It is interesting to note that Whiteman AFB was opened on August 6,1942 as Sedalia Glider Base (Sedalia,Missouri is a nearby town). It was where a lot of the glider pilots and the pilots of the tug aircraft were trained. Quite a bit of the Waco CG-4 production occurred only about 50 miles from Whiteman, in Kansas City,Missouri and Kansas.
