    We designed the B-52G/H in 1956 for high-altitude bombing. But in 1961, in the middle of the Cold War, we redesigned the structure to meet SAC's new more severe usage and service life requirments. These notably included low level terrain avoidance training, often under extreme gust and maneuver conditions. The main reason for the structural longevity is that the usage has not been as severe as was projected. As Chief of Structures Technology at Boeing-Wichita at the time of the redesign. I am honored to say I chose the materials, the analysis methods, and the limiting stress levels for the redesicn. I am now 95 and I am thrilled to see these planes still flying, and projected to do so for many more years.

    It should also be noted that these bombers don't structurally age as quickly as, say, most commercial airliners. Airline companies try to keep their aircraft in the air 24/7 because a commercial aircraft that isn't in the air is a commercial aircraft that isn't making money for the airline company. That puts a lot of wear-and-tear on their airframes. In contrast, these B-52's normally aren't in the air unless there is a training mission or they're moving to a new base or there is some other specific mission for them.

It was about half the size I thought it would be, maybe as big as a Boeing 747 ( I just looked up dimensions of both, and the B 52 is actually smaller!). Still, magnificent tho.

    The black "smoke" is not what you think. They inject water into the fuel system, just before it gets burned in the engines, at various points during flight to increase power. This is what makes the vapor exhaust turn blackish. Also, you have no idea how loud these were back in the day. They are very much quieter now than at that time.
