Oops!

Engine drops from B-52 bomber in rural North Dakota

Waiting for more information on that one. Whether the whole engine fell off or it fragged in flight. Big difference.

Maybe they went out for target practice; but, forgot to bring some bombs and felt that they had to do something.

Bah, they had seven others. Did they really even notice?

Those bad boys were LOUD! Especially when they went to jets.

Some flyboys get carried away and forget that not all the neighbors love the Sound of Freedom, esp on a Sunday morning.

I don't know about you guys, but, I never get tired of watching these things.

It's better when it's bigger.

Any landing you can walk away from is a good one... even if you're 75 miles from nowhere during an Alaska January.

Welcome home, Concorde

The last Concorde to be built, and the last to fly, was towed across the airfield to become the centerpiece of Aerospace Bristol.
