The B-2 Stealth bomber completed its eighth flight test Wednesday at the Air Force Flight Test Center, Edwards AFB, California. The five hour, 48 minute test assessed flight control and structural systems checkout. This series of tests is designed to verify systematically the operational characteristics of the B-2.
