FARK.com: Fark Video Player (4632948) Coolest aircraft video you'll see all day: Alert response and 15-ship B-52 Minimum Interval Take-Off (MITO), in support of Exercise GLOBAL THUNDER, Minot AFB, ND, June 09
Imagine - 8 jet engines per plane x 15 planes = 120 single engine jet planes taking off over 15 minutes!
Even if they turned around and landed they burned enough fuel to power every car in North Dakota for 20 years
During the cold war if the President had to launch the alert bomber force they had 15 minutes to get them all off. They went down the runway at 15 seconds apart.
Enjoy...
