Two weeks ago on the World of Aviation we learned about the crash of a B-52 bomber in the Twin Cities. This Sunday morning (1-18-26) we'll get a first hand account of the horrific crash of this behemoth  bomber in 1958 in Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota.  Loren Kahl was 15 when the Stratofortress slammed into the Kahl family farm.  The explosion was so intense, people across the Twin Cities thought it was a nuclear attack.  Join Loren Kahl and Al Malmberg to hear Loren's first hand account of this devastating crash at 10:05 (ct) on AM-1280-The Patriot.

The World of Aviation Hosted by Al Malmberg With Guest Tim Pearson

On the World of Aviation with Al talks with Dave Mattsson. This episode of The World of Aviation introduces a discussion about a tragic Cold War–era aviation accident: the crash of a B-52 Stratofortress into the Kahl family farmhouse in Inver Grove Heights, Minnesota, on September 16, 1958. Host Al Malmberg interviews aviation historian David Mattsson, who has extensively researched the event. Mattsson explains how his hands-on work with historic military parachute and aviation life-support equipment led him to aviation history, especially within the warbird community. His interest in the 1958 B-52 crash grew from long-standing rumors and conflicting accounts, until he uncovered firsthand connections through a colleague whose neighbor was Loren Kahl—the teenage survivor who lived on the farm when the bomber crashed.
