Convair B-36 Peacemaker at Pima Air & Space Museum
This is a newly restored Convair B-36J Peacemaker on display at the Pima Air & Space Museum outside of Tucson, Arizona. It is my understanding that this particular aircraft was the last B-36 manufactured and the last B-36 to be retired from the US Air Force inventory. Congratulations to the museum's restoration crew. A job well done.

IFR was requested at 05:19. At 05:56 the crew received a weather forecast: thin (1000 feet) obscuration; visibility 1/2 mile. The crew ...

Swissair Convair CV-990-"Landing Kai-Tak"-1964
Some real footage, some staged, and even though the actual aircraft footage is minimal, the video is worth it alone for all that great engine scenery from within the cabin! Nice, up close shot of the nose gear too. Also, watch for a CP-Air DC-8, BOAC 707, AND VC-10 wearing the short lived "Interim" Speedbird livery!
