B-52brought back to life from the Boneyard

Hi folks, I stumbled upon this interesting story on CNN.   We hear about the famous aircraft graveyard in Arizona, the "Boneyard", all the time.  Here is one airframe that was pulled out of long term storage and flown to replace a fire damaged aircraft.

It amazes me they keep these ones flying for as long as they have. They other honourable mention goes to the Sea Kings, about the toughest thing ever built still flying today

Thanks for sharing, I have been to the Boneyard many times and it is GREAT that another one made it out alive!!!
