One of the guys from my church when I was in Buffalo flew the C-130s out of that base. Would be cool to see a video.

i saw this exact event on wednesday afternoon around 5:30. big ass plane flying super low and just turns straight towards the off ramp in nf. i was seriously making all kinds of bodily functions in my pants. very spooky but i’m not a fan of planes to begin with.

Any plane can land there. There have been C5’s there, which is more weight. There is a small possibility that the wing span of the b-52 maybe too wide, it has wheels on the wings since there is a ton of movement in the wings, and they don’t want the wings to drag when filled up with fuel.

Assault landings are the high angle attack landings that Fuzzy fish was refering to, EXTREMELY cool. - [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iIUJAXwjEk&feature=related](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0iIUJAXwjEk&feature=related) A great video of such

I believe wheels to the ground it can stop in 300ft. With the boost rockets it can take off in like 1000ft.

Yeamabu your boss / manager is pretty much an idiot.

LOL@ cant take off or land there, niagara falls has longer runways than buffalo international.  
We are one of the few airports that the concord can land at.

Isnt the NF airbase runway somewhere in the 2 mile length? Flew over it once, and the pilot was saying something along that tune.
