With its first flight recorded 70 years ago and the last version produced still forming a potent part of the airpower available to the USAF's Air Force Global Strike Command today, the Boeing B-52 Stratofortress is very much a classic aircraft. In this 8-page booklet, we visit a B-52D preserved at Orlando International Airport in central Florida. Included is general information concerning the 'D' model, detail images, and short histories of the 306th Bombardment Wing, Heavy and 7th Bomb Wing.
Originally published in 2012 as an article in the Aviation Miscellany No.1 volume, this publication is free to view at the PlanePixelBooks Publications blog linked below.
