Who Likes Aircraft ?

When I searched for this picture I was expecting more dissimilarity than this, thinking the B36 would be noticeably larger. They are a lot closer in size than I was expecting.

Those two aircraft still have the longest wingspan of any bomber ever built. B-36 is the longest.

Skyraiders were pretty amazing. I built a model of one as a kid. My memory may be off but seems like I remember they could carry the same bomb load as a B17 typically did.

Reminds me of this Duffel Blog post:

F-100C at an airshow, with 335gal wing tanks and various air to air and bomb armaments, including nuclear "shapes". B-47 and F-102 Delta Dagger in background. Sometime late 50s' i would guess. I have 2,200h in the Super Sabre.

An experimental interceptor, the Mig Ye150 was built as a prototype, and was an extremely high performing jet.

Reaching speeds of Mach 2.85 with its single engine, and first flown in 1960, the jet wasn't put into production, but was used for research into high speed flight. It had a ceiling of over 74,000 feet.

I thought you guys would appreciate this wrap. I saw it at Home Depot and asked him about it and he was very happy somebody asked and we talked for a good solid 30 minutes about it and my Dad working for NASA. I felt my day was complete after that.
I learned allot.
