The coolest Art I have seen comes from the B-52 mother ship out at Edwards AFB. When I was stationed out there, I have seen her fly many times. Anyways, here are the mission markings on the side. This is what sets this plane apart from any other in the world. She was the oldest flying B-52 (being a B model) with the fewest hours just 2,443 hours since it first flew in June 1955. Known as Balls 8 cause of her serial number 52-0008, She was retired on December 17, 2004. She flew at Edwards for 49 years.
