XB-52 wing flexing from http://www.faqs.org/docs/air/avb52_1.html

"The wings were thick, with a chord (ratio of cross-sectional height to width) of 15% at the root, tapering to 8% in the outer wing. They could flex from 3 meters (10 feet) down to 6.7 meters (22 feet) up."

Wildrapid47, about that month's salary, how'd it go?
