Yep, should be added!  :D

Silliness aside, would be sweet to see one of these gals flying again.  I'd go to that airshow!

I walked through the B36 at the USAF Museum in Dayton.  It is HUGE!. So huge the B36 is raised, and there are two B52s parked below it!

What B-29?  All I see is some sort of chaser aircraft next to it.

That is incredible how big it is compared to B-29.  I never knew!

Very odd when you stop and think of the money and time we spend planning on killing each other for whatever the latest reason we are fed

Cool!  Thanks for the vid, Arlo!  :aok

I got to see the one at the USAF Museum in Dayton once.  It was awesome.
