I once met a fellow in Tucson who designed this plane. He was fascinating to talk to. He also had a hand in the PBY and B-24 and supervised the customizing of one for Churchill. That man saw and made history. One hell of a photo album.

On a train ride from Bakersfield Ca, to Stockton Ca, I looked out the window to see an astonishing site, a collection of amazing war era fighters and bombers, and helicopters. And among them was a huge B-36 Peacemaker and a B-52 Stratofortress, Later when I got home I researched and found out that it was called Castle Air Museum, at the now defunct Castle Air Force Base in or near Atwater, Ca. I hope to visit there one day. Also Travis Air Force Base and March AFB both have amazing collections.

Six Turning And Two Burning. I remember when
as a child, those things would fly over at high altitude and rattle the dishes in the cabinets. |
