Had no idea the B-36 was ever in a film - what great footage.

there's EXCELLENT footage in this film, not only of the Peacemaker, but the Stratojet (B-47). AND the sharp eyed will be looking in the background for all sorts of other eye candy.

I recorded Strategic Air Command on my DVR about a month ago just because I remembered Wrench talking about the footage in it.

Can't get my head around this aircraft ever existing! let alone flying.

I remember long ago, (45+ years - I was a teenager) I went to the museum at March Field. They had the "set piece" of the cutaway nose/cockpit of the B-47 used in the last half of the film. I KNOW I took a picture of it, but don't have a clue where it might be. The description plaque said it was used in the movie

MB: didn't I post pictures of the B-36 at the Castle AFB museum in the Digital Recon Forum??

I have 36 SAC documents and a pilots handbook for the B-36H - but never seen one moving with a load of others parked on the same ramp - some kind of awesome sight.
