B-52 Design: Dayton hotel birthplace of jet-powered bomber
- trafficlight 14y agoThis is just flat-out terrible story telling. How about some detail on the design struggles? It sounds like they just drew a few lines on a napkin and called it good.
- utopkara 14y agoSounds like a cheap glorification. I bet the bulk of the design work was done after the project was approved. Why do people need to make up such stories that simplifies and undermines the long and iterative process it takes to produce large projects?
