I had a similar experience in the late 70’s, raging blizzard, visibility so poor we could not see buildings or road signs, just tracks in the snow a few feet in front of the pickup.
Finally there was one of those momentary letups, we could see the beacon on the control tower and we were south of it. Looked around and we were right by a B52 in my POV. I did a quick U-turn, and under the protection of near zero visability we made our escape undetected.
Good point.
