That B-52 crash in 1994 involved some hotdog with a string of flight safety violations who did a vicious left turn at low airspeed/low altitude which made the wings dump all their lift & it fell out of the sky sideways.

One very preventable accident. The approach in this photo shows them following all the rules & it’s hazardous enough as it is.
