Way back when (college days), I heard a story from one of the several USAF pilot types that were in the same Aero Engineering classes (the Air Force was paying them to get their Masters).
Two pilots that had gone through flight training together were flying as part of an exercise - one in an F-4, the other in a B-52. The F-4 pilot was bragging about how great his aircraft was, and it could do anything a B-52 could do only better. The B-52 pilot said "OK, let's see you do this". The F-4 pilot was confused and asked what the Buff pilot had just done? The response was "I just shut down two engines".
