the B-1 has no ailerons as was stated and those same spoilers u speak of roll the aircraft along with the differential tail plane so they can be classified as roll spoilers as 1 of your pilots ..and get back to me if you wish
-
@viperdriver82 That's why they're just called "spoilers" and "speed brakes" and not "roll spoilers". I work on these jets every day and no one calls them "roll spoiler".

@herccc TRUE ....... but roll spoiler roll doesn't have a ring to it
-
Bone roll .... got to luv it , Superb,,,,,,,

there was no b 1b lancer display at waddington 2003 ! i was there that year .
Back in the 1970's my father worked in cockpit wiring design on the B-1A program at North American Rockwell in Los Angeles; he was layed off when President Carter cancelled the program, and all these years later he'll be thrilled to see this footage.
FIVE STARS, especially seeing as you managed to avoid the idiotic patter and chatter of the many and sundry groundlings...yeah, the stuff that plagues most airshows. Imagine if airshow announcers would just let the airplanes do the yakking!

Awesome! What a sight seeing a B1 roll like that! I was at Jones Beach a couple of years ago and the B1 banked hard, but didn't roll. This is great!
