That B-29 has quite a history, and I'm sure many of our R-390(A)'s
have quite a history, but get a load of this: The service life of
existing B-52's is projected to last through nearly the year 2050.
Wow.
I mean, mind-blowingly wow.
The current flying B-52's are mostly from 1960-1962.
Our grandkids and great-grandkids and maybe great-great grandkids will
be flying these BFUF's.
Tim.
