So, we're talking about a wing span of roughly 4 FEET.

I'm pretty sure 89% of the orders will come from bachelors.

"Honey, look at this kit I just bought".
"That's great but where are you going to put it when its done?"
"I was thinking either in the bedroom or in the kitchen, maybe the dining room. ..WHAT???"

I guess you order the kit (and we're talking about something like $800 US) with in-flight wings or grounded wings plus different weps load-outs.

Of all people, I can't believe Nigel got the BD tail code wrong.

There are now only two air force bases that host B-52 wings in the CONUS. Barksdale and Minot.

Tail codes-

LA - Barksdale, La. (regular USAF)
MT - Minot, ND. (regular USAF)
BD - BarksDale, La. (USAF Reserve, aka AFRES)
