Remembering the Last Original Flying Wing and its Pilot

If you're ever in Southern CA, a hidden gem is the "Planes of Fame" warbirds museum in Chino, CA ... this aircraft, the Northrup N9MB flying wing and its airframe are directly related to the B2 Spirit...Unfortunately, the aircraft crashed last May with Dave Vopat at the controls...several wits indicated the aircraft performed an 'aerobatic' maneuver at low altitude just prior to the crash sequence but I think the 'maneuver' was part of the sequence as the aircraft shed some of its control surface as it went down... A true legend of flight and was the last of its kind....RIP
