And less than a year later 1/10/64 B-52H-145-BW, 6-032, l/n 464397 on a test flight out of Wichita lost it's vertical in heavy turbulence. The flight crew lowered the mains and corralled the airplane while talking with Boeing engineers in Wichita and flew it for around 5 hours before landing in Batesville AR. geek
