Good read Jim. Thanks :banana:
As Charlie can tell you, I get worked up emotionally with aircraft, especially ones that get abandoned or destroyed. Some many people have worked on them that they leave a part of themselves with the aircraft. I couldn't stand for a single one to be 'recycled', but I understand why they do it. The B/RB-36's were turned into scrap metal as soon as they hit the bone yard. I don't think they even gathered any dust to speak of.

There's actually a photo in a book or floating around somewhere of my dad's RB/36 (748) at Davis Monthan (Bone Yard). He was it's crew chief in the early to mid 50's.
Found it... http://www.aerofiles.com/convairJRB36H.jpg The multiple square windows were camera ports for observation of airborne nuclear tests in the Pacific.
Nice pics Jim 👍🍻🍻🍻🍻🍸🍷👍
