Talk:2008 Andersen Air Force Base B-2 accident

"first ever known crash" ?
Is there a suspicion that there are unpublicized crashes of B-2's? If not, we may consider removing the word "known" from the lead paragraph. 208.68.48.240 (talk) 20:40, 29 December 2008 (UTC)
 * There is growing rumor about a secret England crash-landing and subsequent scrapping or total rebuild of a B-2, which was hit hard by the same hungarian serb SA-3 commander, Zoltan Dani, who downed the F-117 and the F-16 in the 1999 Kosovo war. 87.97.109.177 (talk) 16:40, 25 December 2009 (UTC)
 * I have removed the word "first" from the first sentence of the article. As written, it is indicating that this is the first of two (or more) "2008 Andersen Air Force Base B-2 accidents".  As the second sentence of the lead paragraph indicates that this is the first hull loss, that is sufficient.  If any references surface regarding earlier losses/accidents, the second sentence can be updated.  As for the 2010 accident, it's included in the main B2 article and does not make the disambiguation that this is the first accident required. --Slazenger (Contact Me) 15:22, 11 May 2020 (UTC)

Such imagery is supposed to be classified, ain't?
Here are two photos of the B-2 crash aftermath. The wreck is quite recognizable, probably good enough for a museum donation if it was not shredded yet for security paranoia as usual:

Do we have a ref that this is incorrect? Hcobb (talk) 00:50, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Crash?
The "Crash" section of this article contains just one sentence that is actually about the crash itself, and that's little more than saying that it happened and when. Either add more about the actual crash, or rename the section to more accurately reflect its contents. --Piledhigheranddeeper (talk) 00:18, 23 February 2018 (UTC)

Removed edit
This edit takes issue with a contention made in the article text. I have removed it as it is uncited. The IP, is owned by Northrop Grumman, which is the manufacturer of the aircraft. , if you have a source for your edits, from an independent agency, please link to the source or give a link here.

The data from the sensors are used
are because the writer regards data as the plural of datum, or because of the intervening noun sensors which is in the plural? 2A01:CB0C:CD:D800:8500:46BE:5571:6668 (talk) 11:35, 23 January 2022 (UTC)

work around, true or false?
A large part of the Mayday episode cited in this article goes into an undocumented work around to sensor moisture developed during the 2006 deployment that was not carried over to the 2008 deployment and cites the lack of that work around as a primary reason for this accident. I see nothing about that in this article, is the work around aspect fact or fiction? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 128.32.28.2 (talk) 18:24, 15 July 2022 (UTC)
