~Really~ crappy shot when I forget to attach it...

This guy is sitting up at Boeing's plant at PAE with an interesting
variation on the paint scheme.

Crappy shot, sorry... No better angle available. The B-52G belongs
to The Museum of Flight in Seattle, who have no room for it. It has
been at PAE for over two decades slowly fading. It has a small dent
in the trailing edge of the left wingtip that matches the one in my
head. Not having peripheral vision can be painful...

I did wonder where the picture was but thought you would notice its absence
in due course.

That's certainly one colour scheme that I have never seen before.

PAE is an interesting looking place, I had a quick look on Google Earth and
saw the B.52 sitting there along with all the other aircraft nearby.
Were you lucky enough to be on the airfield to get that picture, only GE
makes it look like you would have to have been?
