Knavey's got that right... as far as the B52 flight was concerned, an unmarked one makes me think that they were testing out some new electronics...

[:)]And would the cost of gas be any cheaper over the B-52's base? Aircrew needs flight time to keep current. That means flying somewhere. I wish I had a dollar for every time flight crews that I was part of flew cross country for lunch. If you have to fly somewhere , you might as well do it over interesting landscape.[:D]
