    My Uncle, Lt Col George Gamache, was the Navigator on that plane.

    Never heard this story before. Everything went wrong on that B-52D that day it seems. Losing one engine or even two and the aircraft could usually be saved. But it seems like it lost more then two and probably had some other issues. Based on the amount of fuel left onboad when it crashed the crew didn't have enough time to dump fuel before landing, so the aircraft was heavy. So sad. As an aside, the B-52D at the memorial park was built in 1956 (56-687) and actually served at McCoy AFB before being tranfered to Fort Worth. It was retired in 1984 from active service. Well done on the video.

    Happy 3 year TH-camiversary! That is a great milestone. This is a tragic story. It is a shame the local government didn't want to honor those who perished in the accident here. Such a sad life changing day for those they left behind. Thanks for telling their story.

      Thanks for joining me on my 3 year anniversary and it’s such a tragedy. It’s the worst aviation disaster in Orlando.

    Sad story of some very little known Orlando history. Congrats on the 3 years.

    We visited this park in a vlog back in January (found it as we were driving past) and we stopped and visited, but we never knew there was such a tragic story behind why this plane is here. How sad. If we're in the area again, I'd like to re-visit and do a video on the plane like you did. Great video, fantastically done. I know a B-24 crashed in Melbourne during WW2, there's no plane at the site, but there is a memorial field.
