Arrived a little damaged but considering the price, amazing value
Have seen examples of this book for extortionate prices, so to get it for £30 with free shipping was an absolute steal. Book is fascinating and reads well. In depth and easy to read, no other B52 book does better. Haynes does it again!

Excellent overview of the B52
I like the Haynes Manuals because they are inexpensive, well produced and full of interesting details. The B-52 volume is no exception, including sections on the history of the aircraft, its maintenance, operation and so forth. It contains excerpts from the operating manuals as well as numerous photographs and drawings. This volume is, in my view, one the better manuals in the series, and I learned a number of things I had not known before, particularly in the ordnance loading and daily operations areas.Frankly, aviation magazines have been in decline over the last five years, and the Air International / Air Enthusiast type of journal we used to see, with three view drawings, cutaways and colour profiles in addition to well written and researched articles, have now largely disappeared (The Aviation Historian Quarterly happily excepted).The Haynes manuals can be seen as a replacement for your old Aviation magazine, with interesting detail and a production quality which is worth holding on to. They are never the "last word" on an aircraft's history or operational detail, but as an entertaining package, they are well worth the cost.

Fun book
The idea of a Haynes manual for the B52 is great. Yes it has factual errors but it’s just fun. Could have been done better. My son is a B52 maintenance officer so I bought this for him. The B52 maintainers know about it and he loves having it on his bookshelf. And I was around them at Robins AFB in the late 70’s. Never imagined my son would be keeping them flying. I give it 5 stars for the moral boost it delivers to him and his team.
