Off Topic - Big Buff Crash

[Nik Middleton]

Thought some might be interested in this video.  It was shot last weekend at the british Nationals.
 
B52 has eight gas turbines.  Weather was very windy.  Apparently, if the bank angle is more than 20 degress, the aircraft will enter a spiral dive.  Not sure if this is the same on full size or not
