I was planning on having a new poll each month, but I could change it to a new poll each week instead... It would keep interest higher since the amount of voting you could do would increase 4 fold... So what does everyone think?

I believe all on board the B-52 died. _________________ FAF/FA-2 FM Wizard "Oh the horror of the seven engine approach" Half man, half machine, half timebomb.....

This poll was a trick question! The correct answer is the Boeing B-17, which was rolled many times during flight displays of production aircraft... The DASH-80 demonstrator that later developed into the KC-135 and Boeing 707 also did two barrel rolls when on display, but it was not a production 707 so that answer is incorrect as no Boeing 707 was ever barrel rolled! Heh... The B-52 was attempted to be barrel rolled but crashed... The C-5A/B was never attempted, and rightly so, this aircraft would immediately lost its wings in such a maneuver...

ROFLMAO now IF you had worded it "which of these was the largest aircraft to do an acrobatic barrel role?" you would have made sense lol _________________ FAF/FA-2 FM Wizard "Oh the horror of the seven engine approach" Half man, half machine, half timebomb.....
