During the recent Barksdale AFB, La. Open House and Airshow, this Lockheed Super Constellation was displayed, showcasing a bygone era of civilian passenger air service. At the time in which the four engine propeller driven airliner was being retired, the last of the B-52H models, like the one in the background here, were rolling from the assembly line. After 42 years of continuous service the B-52H is still on the job.
