I went for a trip in a B-52G from Barksdale during GIANT VOICE '79. Very interesting, but give me a Vulcan any day!

The AC let me fly a PAR; by some fluke it went on rails and the aircraft was very pleasant to fly even with handful of 8 throttles.

The 'crab gear' check whilst taxying was very interesting - it seemed so weird to be travelling sideways along the RW!
