The B-29 first flew in 1942. The B-47 first flew in 1947. What a leap in aeronautics we made in those 5 years!
It’s also a reminder that as futuristic as the B-47 was, it was manufactured with WWII technology.
(That’s B-50 at top, a B-29 on the bottom.)

Boeing B-52G-75-BW Stratofortress. The “3” on the fin and the white cross square identify this aircraft as a Boeing flight test aircraft circa 1959.
