About this time last year a B-1 launching out of Diego Garcia for a mission in
Afghanistan
had a similar thing. Not only electrical stuff and instruments failing, but engines
dropping
off line. Crew ejected below 10k ft from airplane that was inverted, flamed out
and totally
ballistic. No controls.
