Synopsis
The Convair B-36 "Peacemaker" sparked more controversy than any weapon system ever built until the ill-fated Star Wars system of the late 1980s. Extensive research has uncovered new details about the B-36 and its derivatives. This new volume includes a detailed serial number list that covers each airplane and its final disposition. An entire chapter covers the efforts to reclaim and scrap the aircraft as they were taken out of service. For aviation enthusiasts and modelers., The Convair B-36 "Peacemaker" was the ultimate statement of American air power at the beginning of the Cold War. An intriguing mix of proven World War II concepts and 1950s high-tech, the aircraft would spark more controversy than any weapon system ever built until the ill-fated Star Wars system of the late 1980s. Includes extensive photographic coverage of the devastating 1952 Texas tornado that almost wiped out a good part of the B-36 fleet. A detailed serial number list covers each airplane and its final disposition, and a chapter covers the efforts to reclaim and scrap the aircraft as they were taken out of service.
