A B-52 crew performing a low level flyby of a ground-based radar scoring site in preparation for SAC's Bomb Comp 1991.
Yours truly was aboard on this particular day as part of a 1st Combat Evaluation Group (CEVG) sortie
to calibrate the bomb scoring radar at the site.
This job is just plain fun.
I had a friend with a video camera at the site to record the action.
It was a very windy day at this site in West Texas.
The airplane was crabbing into the wind quite a bit.
That made it a lot more difficult to fly the correct path over the site.
Also, cameo appearances by the FB-111 and B-1 bombers.
The FB-111 pilot had a right seater from the Wing with him, so he couldn't show us quite so much of what the airplane can do.
Too bad, because the FB-111 at low level is such a great sight.
The B-1 guys, well...who knows.
I think the pilot was just demonstrating the "by the book" method.
