Damn bomber-magnet Guam.

Holy crap. I cant even imagine trying to get out of a B-52 in a hurry.

Soo thankful there are no deaths..

“ B-52 accident in Guam occurred as plane was preparing to takeoff; plane caught fire after aborting takeoff, officials say - AP”

Yep. At least we have that option. That has got to be quite a project too.

The things airmen do to get out of Minot.

The things they do to avoid going back.

This is what happens when the government raises the retirement age too high

At least this didn’t happen fifty or sixty years ago.

7 crew? I thought it was 5 when the tail gunner went away in the H variants.

We had a B1 crash here (no real injuries) in Aug 2013. Huge hassle for a loooong time for a lot of people

indeed “crash” seems a little overly generous from what I’ve read so far. Sounds like an abort, and then a fire, or an abort because of a fire.

just open the bomb bay doors, and make like a bomb

The best part is they will rebuild it because the BUFF cannot die, and cannot be stopped.
