    The B-52 sure has a unique landing gear configuration: four nose gear, and four main gear, plus one wheel at the end of each wing.

    My father flew these after B36s were pulled. At one base, they deployed parachutes from the back on landing to slow them down on shorter runways. When either plane took off the noise was deafening and the ground shook.

      @chhmar99utube: I agree. I grew up in the 60's right next to an Air Force base where these monsters were taking off right over our heads. My Dad later told me they were headed to Cambodia. Fully loaded. They fly very low, slow and LOUD. We could read the ID numbers on the bomb casings and they threw a tremendous shadow as they passed over.

    I don't know why, but I could watch B-52's all day. There's just something so majestic and bad ass about them, plus the fact they've lasted so long. When I was a kid I got that Monogram 1/72 model kit of the B-52, and have been in love ever since.

    • @trigger9779

    1968 coming from R&R we stopped in Guam to refuel and we were told to go to the end of the runway a flight is taking off shortly.
    We watched as the B52 was loaded with bombs in the bay plus under the wings I believe the held 113 bombs, as they were taking off they used every inch off the runway, the wings were like flapping from the weight of the bombs, and all of a sudden we heard a flap noise and it went airborne
    We had arc lites almost every night on the DMZ but this was my first close up for me to see them. Each wing tip had wheels attached to compensate for the wing stress.

      @Apoindeed 6 років тому +4

      The Bomb bay is in the middle and its pretty long, which prevents the landing gear to be placed in the „usual“ center of gravity, but instead makes it necessary to be placed behind instead. The Plane does not „rotate“ on take off, instead the wings are shaped in a downward position and not straight like normal airliners. So basically the plane always stays in a straight position and never rotates on its axis. That makes securing the loaded bombs also easier and not really necessary. It just is a revolutionary plane with techniques that never got used again apparently!
