Hey, these are great! I was particularly pleased to see not only the "sliced plane" photo but the newspaper story with the background on that one. Especially since some fool sent me the photo a couple years ago with a totally false caption about a jealous husband and a chain saw... |

Thanks, John, a great way to waste some time.
I noticed that in the second photo of the B-52 crash at Fairchild Air Force Base (http://soltisplastics.com/oops/B-52crash2.jpg), it's pretty clear that someone has just punched out. I was unaware that anyone got out. Since there were no survivors (http://s92270093.onlinehome.us/crmde...lue/darkblue.h tm) I guess he was too low for his chute to open. The monograph referenced above makes a fascinating study of an ego run wild. Too bad Holland took three other people with him. -- Bob (Chief Pilot, White Knuckle Airways) "Big John" wrote in message ... Crack a brew and sit back and look at these photo's.

Force Base (http://soltisplastics.com/oops/B-52crash2.jpg), it's pretty clear that someone has just punched out. I was unaware that anyone got out. Since there were no survivors I've been told that the co-pilot had actually partially ejected when the B-52 impacted the ground. What you're seeing in the photo is the co-pilots hatch that has just been jettisoned as part of the ejection sequence. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
