An interesting video about what if there was a civil version of b-52

I for one would absolutely love the unobstructed downward view underneath the B-52 shoulder wing, one of the very few things the Baade 152 had going for it - wait, can anybody figure out what 152 minus 52 is?...

Surely that's the Aade+204? Subtracting a negative being a positive, of course!

Narrow aisle though..maybe each seat can slide diagonally in a zig-zag for more leg-room.

And the passengers can see the thieves stealing their bags. Keep that bomb-bay switch disabled, Mister.
