U.S. Air Force version

Early after the F-117 stealth aircraft had been declassified, it was to have been shown off, behind armed guards, at an air show, at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base. Scheduling problems made its visit impossible.

Nevertheless, the base command rose to the occasion. They put up warning ropes, with unsmiling Air Police holding their rifles in front, and put up a sign, "stealth aircraft". Eventually, after two days of impressed visitors nodding knowingly, the base commander could no longer stand it, and put up a stand holding an empty flight suit, labeled "stealth pilot." Howard C.
