A close-up of the 1000 hours flying patch worn by B-2 pilots who have achieved this milestone in flying the B-2. Only 31 pilots have ever reached 1000 B-2 hours, and just 13 still actively fly the B-2 Stealth Bomber.  Seven of these elite pilots are 131st Bomb Wing Missouri Air National Guard members at Whiteman Air Force Base:  Lt. Col. Rhett Binger,  Lt. Col. Mike Pyburn, Lt. Col. Dave Thompson,  Maj. Jared Kennish, Maj. John Avery,  Maj. Geoffrey Billingsley, and Lt. Col. Mike Means, who has over 1500 B-2 flying hours. (National Guard Photo by Senior Master Sgt. Mary-Dale Amison.  RELEASED)
