"That is no problem. It is such a cool machine,"
the Russian was quoted as saying. :eek:
I've seen my share of C12s, 130s, 141s, and broken C5s on Sub-Saharas tarmacs, but nobody ever offered to buy one, not even the Russian Spies :D

An astounded member of the U.S. delegation said
the bomber was not for sale but that it would cost at least $500 million if it were to be sold on the spot.
MOSCOW (Reuters) - A wealthy Russian tried to buy a U.S. B-52 bomber from a group of shocked American pilots at an airshow near Moscow, a Russian newspaper reported Friday.
The unidentified Russian, wearing sunglasses and surrounded by bodyguards, approached the U.S. delegation and asked to buy the bomber, the Komsomolskaya Pravda newspaper said.
