The Convair B-36 was
the largest and most complex piston-
engined bomber
produced for the USAF but was rapidly
overtaken by
more advanced jet powered aircraft. Designed
during WW2 and
first flown in 1946, it entered operational
service in 1949,
and was a film star in "Strategic Air
Command" with
James Stewart. However it was rapidly
overtaken by
developments in jet powered aircraft, and
even though the
last example was manufactured in 1954,
they were retired
from service 5 years later in 1959.
This CD contains the
USAF pilot flight manual for two models
of the B-36. The CD has been scanned from the original
flight
manual and retains any colour pages.
