69th BS, 42nd BW. Anybody lucky enough to have been at the Midenhall Air Fete in 1990 will never forget the display of this B-52G named 'Swashbuckler'. This sadly is the only half-decent shot that I managed to get because of the almost impossibility of photographing the flying display from the public enclosure. This B-52G was retired to AMARC on the 15th April 1993. This photo is copyright © Alex Christie, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
