Landing speed would be a bit high, but I'm not sure how much control you
have to keep the wingtip up. As I recall, the B-52 uses spoilers for yaw just
like the B-47 as ailerons would cause the wing to twist, resulting in reversed
control. Not sure if this is true, just something I understood from history.
