New to Wiki, still working on this page.

Note for Why Not A Duck: I base my changes to the "1994 Fairchild Air Force Base B-52 crash" page based on my experience serving for 10 years as a USAF B-52 G/H crew chief. There are no fuel vents on top of the wing of a B-52 bomber, the only fuel vent in the wings are the "surge" tanks located at the end of the wingtip. The fuel in those tanks is from the seepage of the "wet wing" fuel tanks and is held in by air pressure of the aircraft while it is in flight. These tanks are routinely drained by ground crew members after the aircraft returns from flight operations by sticking a hose and hand pump (guzzler) into the vent opening and pumping out the fuel by hand.

This change to the page was not done for any flight of fancy or casual whim, I was correcting a technical mistake in the data provided. Kindly restrain yourself from "correcting" the page again. Thank you.
