Hmm...  Quite the discussion has popped up since I've been gone :p

I appreciate the disappointment of those who are now upset that the exterior model is only being released.  Naturally, we all want more, and so do I.  This could be that Captain Sim is gauging the market for a B-52 and will go from there on the interior and systems, or it could be that perhaps they needed more funds right now and decided to make the exterior available.

If you think about it, the B-52 is a somewhat unconventional choice.  You see a goodly amount of airliners being made, lots of GA aircraft, a few fighters, but very few complex military bombers.  As a matter of fact, if Captain Sim went all the way with this I fancy it would be the only bomber for FSX that I would call truly complex.  For this reason I rather think that they are gauging the market for it.

In any case, I think I'll get it.  Their modeling is superb, and I rather fancy that I could win a few screenshot contests with it and recoup my 9 euros.

But, this is just my opinion.  I hope I won't be attacked for it.
