[edit] Summary

Screenshot of Google Earth KML file showing flight path overview of 1994 Fairchild Air Force Base B-52 crash as well as the yellow no-flight zone. [B-52crash.kml. Phil Harvey. Retrieved on 2008-01-29.]

[edit] Details

The plotted flight path was estimated from video and still pictures of the crash, using landmarks in the images to determine position, reported airspeeds to maintain consistent path lengths, and reported and measured bank angles to gauge turn rate, and is accurate to within 100 meters horizontally and 25 meters vertically with 90% confidence. The yellow area is the supposed area of restricted airspace.
