Landing, regenerating to war status, and taking off a Cold War B-52 from a highway was about as likely as the 1903 Wright Flyer going to the moon. Once a "hot" nuclear-type war started, we weren't going to *have* any more B-52s or other strategic bombers. They were all going to be going on one-way trips to Siberia and points west, or were going to be various kinds of vapor. Fighter-interceptors and smaller cargo planes? Lots of reasons to plan for dispersing those. Like the Europeans and Taiwanese are doing right now, for example. -- cirby at cfl.rr.com Remember: Objects in rearview mirror may be hallucinations.
