skydemon2 0 #1 October 30, 2008 So my cousin is stationed on the USS George Washington and sent me a few pictures of a plane that they were filming while doing carrier testing. They didnt say it was top secret and were not told they couldnt take pictures but no info was given as far as they name or type. Any of you aircraft nuts out there got any ideas? Forgot to add he said most of the people involved had skunks on their jackets.... So Im assuming its Locheed Skunkworks?Beauty is only skin deep, but ugly goes clean to the bone!

riddler 0 #6 October 30, 2008 Yeah, I had a very strange url popup on the left side of my screen, which ended with both tags as end-tags. BTW - on Wikipedia's entry for the movie Stealth, there is the same picture, and they mention that filming was done on the US Navy Fleet Carrier USS Abraham Lincoln, while additional scenes were shot on board the USS Carl Vinson. But no scenes were filmed on the George Washington. Maybe it's a sequel?? God, I hope not ... Edit - I'm having so much trouble with tags tonight!Trapped on the surface of a sphere.
