Description
Boeing NB-52B Stratofortress 52-0008 is displayed at the North entrance to Edwards Air Force Base. It can lay claim to being the airplane that has seen and participated in more history than any other single airplane. For forty-five years, the NB-52B was a fixture at Edwards Air Force Base. While the NB-52B is most famous for launching the three North American X-15 rocket planes, it continued to serve in the role of launch platform for a multitude of programs until its final mission on November 16, 2004. This picture was assembled from over 300 frames and has a field of view of about 180 degrees. It is available as prints as large as 48" x 72" at 300 pixels per inch.
