B-52 First Flight

awsome a nice old bird still flying great !!

I've heard B-52 will be flying for decades still... I wonder what that narrater would think if he saw a C-5 or A380. B-52 really isn't all that big by today's standards.

I have been in awe of this plane ever since I read a review including drawings in the Popular Science Magazine, (Circa 1956-58) The Fs 2004 is a place where you can experience the thrill of flying a B-52. This video, although short, was a forecast of things to come. Some have been retrofitted and will be flying for several more years. I was privileged to be a support person occasionally while in the Air Force Crash Rescue Fire Dept.
