My guess is the windows on the B-58 are delaminating...... Really a shame too......

That is the NMUSAF's B-58. From the outside is not noticable, but on the inside, very much so. It is going to be repaired when it gets it's turn in the line. The rest of the aircraft looks great. That is the old mentality of as long as the outside looks good vs. the new one that the General has started of it has to be right inside and out.
