Summary

A B-52 bomber crashed during a test flight at Edwards Air Force Base, killing all eight aboard—including government contractors and military personnel—with investigators pointing to a possible flight control malfunction as the cause. The plane, part of a critical modernization program to keep the aging bomber operational until 2050, made a sharp turn and plummeted at over 5,000 feet per minute. The crash site remains secured as the probe could take up to six months. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
