USAF B-52H BUFF Training Sortie with M117 Live Drop

[Steinbacker4001]

I was on a Roam Team - we launched and recovered B52Hs - Cool to see what was going on in between when they were "ours" on the pad. Not sure with the Crosswind Crab segment - maybe had some sort of indicator light to clear? Possibly making sure of position for when beginning the landing cycle? It is way cool, though, to see a B52 "crabbing" - really weird.

Some of the sequence of the film is hilarious. What in the world would anyone be setting the crosswind crab in the middle of a flight? Hand flying at high altitude?? Not likely. Some video is really quite good.

4:15. A fist full of throttles. I just love this old bird.

Man... those externally/internally hung ordnance looks mighty like the AN-M65 1,000 pound bombs leftover from World War 2!

@Donuts73 M117s

[Donuts73]

@solbergsindre Ouch! I totally forgot about the M117 750 pound bombs... trust me, a USMC grunt, to forget the differences. Pardon me! :P
