• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The B-52 with all its ammunition

Adaptability and durability are the leading reasons for the B-52 remaining in front line service. Built from 1952 to 1962 and entering service in 1955, the B-52 remains a front line bomber and may remain in service to at least 2040 and perhaps even longer! This aircraft was "born" before I was and I may well die of old age before it is retired. Absolutely incredible.
