Love it!

There's a really nice B52 pack here at simv. just do a search. Its about 14 meg Lips Sealed

and comes with different paints and loadouts. Flies nice as far as I can remember. Works well in ACOF...

hi there bones..
it was first flown in the late 60s and mainly for research purposes.. and to find out more about flight characteristics within the atmosphere from high altitude supersonic speeds to landing.
a lot of the research they gleaned from this craft had a major impact on modern day things like the shuttle ect..
if you haven't dl it you should it's great fun..
