A B-2 stealth bomber crashed during takeoff in Guam. At least the pilots ejected safely. It's the first B-2 to crash and it'll be interesting to see what the cause is. The B-2 has to be the most well-maintained aircraft in the fleet.

I guess it had to happen sooner or later. I'm not surprised it happened in Guam. I remember during the Christmas bombing there were several accidents with B-52s flying out of Anderson. The ones coming from Uatpao never seemed to have a problem. Of course it may have just been that they needed an excuse to allow them to land at Clark.
