| B1 Bombers at Ellsworth AFB, South Dakota |
The video starts with trip down the flight line where a bunch of B1 Bombers are parked. Geez, there are a bunch of them. No B1s are stationed at Grand Forks anymore. The Air Force Times tells us that some are stationed at Ellsworth AFB, and Google Maps delivers.

| Moscow to Langley 8,300 Miles |
I plotted the stops mentioned in a Daily Press story about the visit. Somehow I don't think the Russians flew directly from Moscow to Anchorage, a distance of of 4,400 miles. I suspect they made a couple of hops across Russia, maybe to Vladivostok, before flying over the Aleutian Islands to Anchorage.
