    “It will doubtless fly well into the 90s.”
    He means 2090s obviously. The BUFF is immortal.

    I grew up next to Griffiss AFB in Upstate NY. You haven't experienced anything until you have about Ten Buffs fly over your house at about 3000 ft during an alert . You'll never forget it .

    "...approaching the end of its more than 30 years of service..."
    Well, I guess technically true. Crazy that this episode originally aired almost as close to the BUFF's service entry as to the present.

      My thought too. Still flying in 2020's and slated to continue service until 2050. The B.U.F.F. and the C-130 will fly forever. Don't fix what ain't broke.

    They don't make shows like this anymore. Simple, informative and effective. Nothing but the straight information. 👍(although the music is a bit kitschy)

    To think, 7 years after WW 2, and 3 years after the USSR debuted their atomic capabilities, this behemoth took its first flight. Here now 70 years later, it's still in service.

    The XB-60 designation for a swept-wing B-36 descendant means it was promulgated after initial design for the B-58 Hustler?

      It was the B-36 that was named the Peacemaker.

      Nothing is as awesome or awful as the b52s job. Even without nukes it is the most devastating weapon ever built. Well except the b2. The b2 is scarier because no one will see it coming and it's getting a replacement in a few days.
