Members of the 509th and 131st Maintenance Group maintenance flights use a crane to replace a B-2 Spirit replica, nicknamed the Spirit of Innovation, at Whiteman Air Force Base, Mo., Aug. 10, 2017. The B-2 replica weighs 600 pounds and is 22 feet in length compared to the actual B-2's true length of 172 feet. The aerospace repair and phase inspection shops led the project of replacing the static after the old display was removed for repairs. Whiteman owns one of only about 50 of these replicas that were gifted by Northrop Grumman to organizations who took part in the production of the aircraft.
