Doors closing over the wheels as the Northrop Flying Wing takes to the air for a demonstration flight at the Palm Springs Air Museum. Unfortunately the aircraft crashed and was destroyed shortly after takeoff from Chino California on 22 April 2019. Sadly, the pilot did not survive. It was the last of the four of the types built.
