A few days ago when I posted some B-17 photos I said that I had also tried to snap some shots of a B-52. Finally got some today; these guys are shooting touch-and-goes at Barksdale AFB (as they do every day) and I positioned myself just off-base at the runway approach.

In that time, n’er did a wheel touch the ground. The last two photos are of a plane I can’t identify. I’m sure there are guys here who can.
