Summary
| Description |
English: B-52 bomber, piloted by Bud Holland, about to crash at Fairchild Air Force Base on June 24, 1994, killing all four crew members. The co-pilot's hatch cover, released too late to allow his escape, can be seen below the vertical stabilizer. The photo was taken by a U.S.A.F. photographer for an official "fini-flight" ceremony for Colonel Wolff, one of the crew, that was to have followed the flight.
Polski: Bombowiec B-52, pilotowany przez Buda Hollanda, tuż przed rozbiciem się na terenie bazy sił powietrznych, 24 czerwca 1994. W katastrofie zginęli wszyscy 4 członkowie załogi. Na wysokości statecznika pionowego widoczna jest owiewka drugiego pilota, odrzucona jednak za późno by zadziałał jego system katapulty. Zdjęcie wykonane przez fotografa USAF w związku z ostatnim lotem płk Wolffa, który miał jako następny lecieć tym samolotem. |
