...And that concludes today's demonstration of pilot stupidity.
All I can say is that this is a live demonstration of air stall as a result of diminished wing surface by flying at a 90° yaw.

My Uncle Bill Blue shot the second shot in the video. He sold the footage to NBC for over $10,000 and gave the money to the families of the crew. He is a Major General in the Air Force.

Agreed. I'm not a pilot... but I know how an airplane stays aloft (pressure differential created by air moving over a horizontal wing provides lift). I thought the first turn at such low altitude was dumb... the second one I knew it was going down. What was that pilot thinking??

'sbinsdca' I am a pilot, the problem wasn't really the fact that he was low. As you increase your angle of bank your stalling speed increases. Basically he was flying to slow and banking too steeply. He stalled and was going into an incipient spin (the nose began to yaw left). Even if he'd been at 1000 feet he wouldn't have been able to recover in time. maybe if he was in a Cessna 152 he could but not in B-52

I would have thought anyone piloting a B52 would have known and avoided the type of technical issues that caused the plane to crash. What a sad day for those families related and also sad to lose another legend of the skies. I wonder exactly how many B-52's still exist, not counting the ones in the Nevada graveyards??

unfortunately this crash is about ego and showing off.....a dangerous recipe for any pilot

No they walked away without a scratch.......sorry..... but yes it was a stupid question...of course they died.

Oh yeah...we were at SHAW AFB ( Sumter South Carolina) sitting in the day room of the 77th FS (formally 17th TFS). It was found out from a Capt of the 78th sqdn that a Col. was flying the B-52 and hadn't had a lot of stick time after leaving the Pentagon.

The pilot was fantastic, except he wasn't the one at the controls when the airplane was put into the severe roll.
He got dragged down from being considered one of the Best B-52 pilots to save the honor of a higher officer.

It seems a tad Ironic to Me that Iraq was invaded looking for suppossed woMD's.
But is a B52 anything less?
Terrorists fly them and destroy entire Villages in Afganastan and Iraq!
Or is a Terrorist ONLY some-one that attacks White People?
