Boeing has advised the Long Beach Airport that the U.S. Air Force B-1 Bomber is expected to depart on Monday, May 18 in the afternoon. The aircraft arrived in July 2008 for maintenance. Please note, this aircraft will likely use its afterburners upon take off, which will make it louder than the typical airplane departure

Maybe.

I need a better window window to leave work and drive down there though.

As posted on my blog:

The Rockwell B-1B Bomber 86-0125 (c/n 85) was towed out onto rwy 25L at 3pm. The plane started to taxi at 3:45pm and took off on rwy 30 at 3:54pm as "Thunder 26".
