The Osprey is just gorgeous. Like something out of a dream. But MY dream would be to fly in a B-52 Stratofortress bomber. Now THAT is an airplane! I built a model of one when I was a kid and it was huge, almost as big as me. Well, the 8 or 9 year old version of me anyways. I worked on radar systems for surface to air missiles in the military, but as much as I like missiles, I’m fascinated by military transport aircraft and military fighter jets. That’s been since I was a kid; and it never left me. I’m STILL in love with them. Occasionally I’ll see a transport jet (and rarely, a turboprop) and I’ll still drop whatever I’m doing and just stare, transfixed, like a kid all over again.

Howard Hughes' HK-1 Hercules, or "Spruce Goose" at McMinville, Oregon has eight engines.
Added in edit: and the B-36 with six props and four jets had a total of ten.

I always loved the B-52 . The Flying Legend ! ⭐

[semco]

The B-52H model was the first airplane I worked on after leaving tech school and it is the newest and the last of the old BUFF's and I have many memories of the three models I worked on during the Vietnam War and loved them at times as well as hated them at times.

They had a buff in the hanger back in 77 at Lowry AFB in Denver CO when I was in tech school, they let two of us at a time go up in the cockpit I never seen so many switches and controls in my life it was crazy that thing is a monster.

B52 still very much configured to carry nuclear weapons, it is the Rockwell B1 that now only carries conventional

Muhteşem bir makina ateş serbest olsun bununla bir ülkeye baştan aşağıya dümdüz edersin.

While in the Navy, I was fortunate enough to be able to go on a B-52 aerial refueling mission with the Air Force while stationed overseas. Was allowed to sit with boom operator, what a sight to see the B-52 arrive midair and hook up for fuel. You could see the B-52 crew clearly from where I sat. The pictures I took are amazing.

[rael]

Uh, it's the B1 Bomber that no longer carries nukes. The B-52 remains capable of carrying nukes.

The Hugues Hercules also had 8 motors, but it flew only once !

Удивительно красивый самолёт. Особенно потрясающе выглядит взлёт если стоишь в торце полосы!
