Why can't a B-1 go straight up (for however short a time)?...if
it can do a 60 deg attitude then are you telling us that it
cannot go another 30 deg?....why not?...


Power to weight.


According to the story, all that mass was going *supersonic*, FFS.


You don't lose that amount of inertia in the blink of an eye .....



What ARE you talking about?...

He's talking about flight. Something you don't know too much about.

Don't let's get all silly here...we're talking generalities and
I think most posters here seem to think (me too) that any a/c can
go vertical if even for a short time. There may be some with
particular reasons why they can't but in general they all can.

This makes sense to me. And as Judge Judy says "If it makes sense
to me then it's true!"

The B52 wasn't designed for low level penetration operations.

But then those SAC crews must have been wrong all those years for
practicing it....

Just what do you know about the B-52? You are an Army Guard. Let me
introduce another of the us.military.army 404k00ks.

Hmm, let me see.

Big airplane, many engine. Much noise.

Am I wrong yet ?

Was I wrong with my other posting ?

That's the first thing you have said that was truthful. That is about the
scope an Army Guard has about a B-1.

The B52 wasn't designed for low level penetration operations.

practicing it....

Hey, don't forget us *ACC* B-52 guys as well....

No but going completely vertical at the blink of an eye, you do lose your
wings.


WTF does that mean?...you didn't go to 60 degrees instantly did
you?...why must you go to 90 instantly?...

I just like to have two good wings on any AC I happen to be on at the time.
There is enough escapes on the B-1 but not on all AC. But I guess we need
to be overtaxing our Airframes on a daily basis so we can test them out once
in awhile.


Well, there you go...
