Nope. FCS game has a B52 flyover and the FBS game flyover was with a U2 which I have never seen done before. Sweet on both accounts.

"The B-52 has been in active service with the USAF since 1955...
The B-52 completed sixty years of continuous service with its original operator in 2015. After being upgraded between 2013 and 2015, it is expected to serve into the 2050s"
