On the 2 September 1945 the aircraft was on a mercy mission to Osaka with supplies for US POW's. A few hours
after takeoff, the aircraft commander contacted the tower at Northwest Field, Guam and reported mechanical
difficulties with their aircraft. The aircraft returned to base to land. After circling the field for a few
hours to burn off fuel, the crew prepared for landing. Finally, it came in for what at first seemed to be a
normal landing, but at the last moment, it swerved, hit a wingtip on a tree, and burst into flames.
The only members of the crew saved were the 3 gunners; the aircraft broke into two parts, and they were able
to get out of the tail section. Nine crew were killed and one survivor died of his injuries.

MustangsMustangs reports this ID Problem: 44-84634 is not a Swedish Air Force P-51, yet GN96 came from
Sweden. 44-63634 is Swedish AF Fv26121, to Nicaragua and reported as GN93. GN93 is reported to be 44-72331,
but Fv26121 is not known by any other GN#. MM says reasonable to assume GN96 is 44-63634 and not -84634.
BUT, Goodall lists -63634 as definitely GN93.
Goodall says it is possible the IDs were swapped during recovery from Nicaragua.
However, according to Aviation Safety Network, 44-84634 crashed on 7/17/45, eight miles south of Lamont, FL,
and damaged beyond repair (written off), and usaafdata.com shows the pilot was killed in the crash.

84995 (MSN 080-1018) transferred to Wright Field for use in testing of the feasibility of towing the aircraft behind a
B-29 to increase the range. An attachment bar for the cable tow was installed in the nose of the P-80A.
It could be engaged or released by the pilot. The cable not only provided a tow, it also provided
electrical power to the P-80A. Several tests were carried out in which the aircraft was towed
behind a Boeing B-29A (42-93921).
On September 23, 1947, the aircraft took off and attempted to link up in midair to the B-29 tow cable.
After several attempts were frustrated by air turbulence from the B-29, the pilot finally succeeded
in linking up to the end of the tow cable. He was towed through the air for 10 minutes. When it came
time to unhook, the tow bar stubbornly refused to release. The pilot finally maneuvered
underneath the B-29, where the bomber's bow wave snapped the attachment point backwards,
blocking his forward view. He managed to land safely, but the program was immediately
terminated as being impractical. The aircraft was eventually repaired and restored to
standard P-80A configuration and returned to active service.

Noted Jun 25, 2004 at Kalamazoo Aviation History Museum, MI painted as 44-85152. There is a suggestion that 85152 was
incorrectly repainted as 85125; perhaps the Air Zoo has found its real identity and returned it to 85152?
That F-80A was used at Williams AFB AZ to let pilots learn how to fly a jet after flying Mustangs,
Thunderbolts and Lightnings. When Willy Air Patch got done with 152, she was shipped to Lackland AFB TX
for static display and her tail number
Steward Lanham reports that this plane got repainted incorrectly as 485125! He took photos of her in late
1955 while in his basic training and she was bare metal then. Years later,
Williams asked for an F-80 for a gate guard and since Lackland had several, 152 was sent back
to Williams but it is unknown if they ever realized that it was a returning aircraft. When Williams closed,
she wound up at another museum.
Assuming that plane at Kalamazoo is -85125, then this is the history ca.1945: TOS USAF as P-80A.

Far East Air Force. 6204th Photo Mapping Flight, Detachment 1; TDY Johnson AB, Saitama, Tokyo, Japan 26Aug50.
The 6204th Photo Mapping Flight deployed the flight’s RB-17G aircraft complete with
combat crews and maintenance personnel to Johnson AB, Japan.
The FEAF deployment order specified that the aircraft be equipped with normal armament insofar
as practicable, not to interfere with the photographic capability of the aircraft.
This posed a problem for the flight, since the RB-17Gs had been flying peace-time missions and
were not equipped for combat. However, the 6204th found the necessary gunners and equipment
and made the modifications to the aircraft, so that by late August 1950 the detachment
began flying photo-mapping missions over Korea.

By the end of November 1950, the detachment had photographed the entire North Korean area
at least once and re-photographed some areas as far north as weather conditions permitted.
By early December the detachment returned to Clark AB and resumed the flight's mapping program
in the Philippine area.

6204th Photo Mapping Flight, Detachment 1; TDY Johnson AB, Saitama, Tokyo, Japan 26Aug50.
The 6204th Photo Mapping Flight deployed the flight’s RB-17G aircraft complete with combat crews
and maintenance personnel to Johnson AB, Japan.
The FEAF deployment order specified that the aircraft be equipped with normal armament
insofar as practicable, not to interfere with the photographic capability of the aircraft.
This posed a problem for the flight, since the RB-17Gs had been flying peace-time missions
and were not equipped for combat. However, the 6204th found the necessary gunners
and equipment and made the modifications to the aircraft, so that by late August 1950 the
detachment began flying photo-mapping missions over Korea.

Crashed into White's Hill near Fairfax, California early on the morning of 16May46 (2KIS).
The plane took off from Clovis Army Air Field, New Mexico at 4pm on 15May46.
Along with three other crewmen there were twelve passengers.
The B-17 was carrying two crates of top secret equipment for the Operation Crossroads nuclear
tests at Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands.
After a stop at Davis-Monthan Field, Tucson, AZ, and another at Mines Field, Los Angeles, CA,
where several passengers disembarked, the plane was en route to Hamilton Field, Marin County, California.
Just before 2am the following morning, the crew reported that their plane was running low on fuel
and they lost in the fog. The B-17 was actually flying over Hamilton Field when they were in communication
with the Oakland Naval Station Airport radio operators, but because of the dense fog the crew of the B-17
thought they were flying over the Oakland Naval Station Airport. Tragically, so did the Oakland radio operators.
Oakland instructed the B-17 to descend to 1,500 feet and head out over the ocean.
This would enable the Oakland operators to pick the plane up on radar.
The crew of the B-17 followed instructions and descended to 1,500 feet, but instead they smashed into the
side of White’s Hill, just west of Fairfax. The plane slid 75 yards down the slope, and came to rest.
The location was nine miles southwest of Hamilton Field

The Bermuda Agreement governed bilateral air services between the UK and USA;
Jack Frye, president of TWA, wanted to use the B-17 for route proving to find ways of circumventing the Bermuda treaty.
TWA set out on the flights in the B-17 and brokered technical and financial agreements with airlines worldwide.
In the case of Iran Air, the airline invested in 10% of the Iranian airline and received a five-year contract to manage Iran Air.
In April 1947, TWA's B-17 was presented to the Shah of Iran as a deal sweetener.

it was moved to EAA’s Kermit Weeks Flight Research Center for maintenance and restoration
in preparation for its first national tour in 1994.
Damaged during gear collapse on landing at Van Nuys Airport, CA 6May04.
The aircraft landed at Van Nuys, and after rolling approximately half way down the
runway, both main landing gear collapsed, no injuries were sustained.
The aircraft was lifted by crane utilizing built in lifting rings on the wing spars.
Once it was lifted, damage to both main landing gear retract mechanisms could be seen.
Aircraft was carried by crane off the runway to a spot where it was put on jacks.
All other damage to the aircraft was a result of the landing gear collapsing and
sliding on the runway, all propellers, No.3 engine, the lower rocker box covers,
waste gate exhaust stack, lower firewall, and the upper nacelle skin, several engine
cowlings, belly skins, bomb bay doors, belly turret, upper attach mount for the belly turret,
fuselage skin above the upper attach mount for the belly turret. Investigation of
photographic documentation revealed that neither of the main gear were down
and locked at time of incident. Post investigation found the landing gear position
indicating system (green light) was working properly.
Post incident investigation showed that the landing gear retract system functioned
normally as did the manual/emergency landing gear extension system.
The landing gear down and locked indication light (green light) did not illuminate
when it was tested, when a new bulb was installed, the landing gear position
indicating system functioned normally.
The aircraft owner informed this office verbally that they sent the green light to an
independent laboratory and it was determined that the bulb filament was not illuminated when it failed.
ALUMINUM OVERCAST. The B-17 will eventually be housed in the EAA airventure Museum's "Eagle Hangar".
Colonel Harold ‘Hal’ Weekley was a pilot in the 398th Bomb Group during WWII.
Hal was instrumental in the restoration of the EAA's B-17 and began flying it in 1979 as one of its
chief pilots. In the late 1980s the aircraft was up for a second restoration, and with Hal's urging, the
398th Bomb Group Association sponsored the restoration of the airplane in 398th Bomb Group colors.
In honor of Hal's service to the US and to the 398th, the Association and EAA had the airplane painted
in the markings and identification of the 601st Bomb Squadron aircraft, 42-102516,
that Hal and his crew were flying when they were shot down on its 34th combat mission
over Le Manior, France 13Aug44

crashed at Tyler Peak, twenty miles south of Sequim, WA 19Jan52 (3KIS:5RTD).
The aircraft was returning from a search mission to locate survivors from a
Korean airlift plane that had gone down near Sandspit, B.C.
In extreme turbulence and heavy blizzard conditions, the crew experienced
sporadic failure of navigation and radio equipment.
The plane was tossed up and down 800 feet by the severe winter weather.
Suddenly, the plane's port wing clipped trees near the top of a ridge.
The plane was slammed to the ground, ripping out the lower cockpit area and tearing off wing control surfaces.
The plane bounced, crashing back to earth on its belly, knocking off engines and stripping
away the external life boat slung underneath.
The pilot was tossed out of a hole in the cockpit and part of the plane slid over the top of him, pressing him into the snow.
The co-pilot was thrown into the turret compartment and made his way to the bomb bay.
The flight engineer had been standing behind the co-pilot and was thrown to the floor of the cockpit and knocked unconscious.
It then slid like a toboggan down a 2,000 foot steep slope as fire erupted through the cockpit.
The three crewmen who died were in the tail section. Substantial wreckage is extant [2018].

Bailed to Allison Engine Company Indianapolis, IN as a test bed for Allison engine and other turbo-propeller engine development.
The Allison XT40 turbo-propeller engine was being developed for use on the Convair P5Y four-engined flying boat.
Versions of the T40 also powered two experimental vertical take-off projects, the Convair XFY -I ''Pogostick"
and the Lockheed XFV -1 "Salmon".
Also used as the engine test-bed for the Allison XT56 turboprop which was eventually used to power the
Lockheed C-130 Hercules, P-3V Orion, and Electra series.

During 1947, this B-17 was purchased by Art Lacey of Milwaukie, OR.
As the story goes, Lacey bet a friend $5 that he could purchase a WWII-surplus plane,
fly it to Oregon, and display it at his establishment.
He traveled to Altus Field and purchased a war-salvage B-17.
The plane was sold with the stipulation that Lacey could prove to the base commander
that he knew how to fly it safely away.
The personnel at the base told him that flying the plane was at least a two-man job,
and because he had traveled there alone, he fibbed and told them that he had a co-pilot.
He then placed a dressmaker's dummy in the co-pilot's window to satisfy the requirement,
and took off on his test flight.
The plane had seen hard service during the war and was not in the best of shape.
Lacey had an issue with the landing gear, and eventually ended up crashing the Flying Fortress
on its belly on the runway, and then slid it into another B-17 that was parked on the tarmac.
When he approached the base commander and explained he did not have enough money to
purchase another plane, the commander asked his secretary if she had finished the purchase paperwork.
When she said she had not, the base commander sold Lacey a second plane for $1,500 and wrote off the
totaled first plane as wind damaged.
The B-17 departed Altus Field to Troutdale Airport, Portland, OR 8Mar47, arriving 10Mar47.
The plane was disassembled and loaded onto trucks for transport. it was too heavy, too high,
and too wide to be safely transported down two-lane streets and Lacey was unable to secure the proper permits.
He realized if he just moved the plane late at night, he might be able to get away with it before the local police caught on.
He hired two motorcyclists to lead the way and told them if the police saw the caravan, to ride away quickly as possible.
They drove the disassembled plane to its final resting place under cover of night, and when the city realized what
he had done, he was fined for transporting an oversized load without having the correct permits -and paid the fine of $10.
Disassembled into at least four pieces, the bomber was transported to SE McLoughlin Blvd in Milwaukie, Oregon Sep47
and reassembled. Hoisted on to pylons, the bomber was placed on displayed above Lacey's Texaco gas station at
SE McLoughlin Blvd in Milwaukie, Oregon.
Nicknamed "Lacey Lady" by Art Lacey. Also known locally as the "B-17 Gas Station".
Later, the gas station relocated down the street to 13515 SE McLoughlin Blvd where the bomber was installed on
permanent pylons above the ground. Art Lacey died circa 2000, and his daughter now owns the property and this B-17.
Today, the gas station portion is closed. The location is known as The Bomber Restaurant.
During 1996, the forward fuselage was removed and is under restoration at the Wings of Freedom
Showcase indoors also on the same property.
The engines were removed 2012.
The airframe was removed 2014 by B-17 Alliance Group of Aurora for rebuild to flying condition.
Exhibited at the Alliance Foundation Museum, McNary Field, Salem, OR.

centennial celebration. Scrapped. A few parts later salvaged by Yankee Air Force. The museum was
able to acquire the tail wheel structure and two wing flaps that had somehow survived. The flaps had
been mounted one on top of the other and used as a privacy fence/windbreak for someone's backyard
pool. These parts were lost in the hangar fire that destroyed the Yankee Air Museum 9Oct04.

Accident 23Aug52 taxying at Kadena AB, Okinawa
"Command Decision" is certainly the best known B-29 of the Korean War. It is the only bomber ace
and last B-29 bomber retired from the USAF. Officially credited with shooting down five MiG-15s.
"Command Decision" was the USAF Museum's 1st B-29. It was retired to Wright-Patterson AFB around the
beginning of 1957. At that point it was intact and whole. A couple of years later the
museum received ‘Bockscar’ late in 1961. "Command Decision" took a back seat to "Bockscar" and at s
ome point was to be transferred to another museum. During this transfer "Command Decision" was
damaged by a helicopter airlift and ended up back at the USAF Museum as a fuselage walk-through display.
Around the late 1980’ or early 1990’s, "Command Decision's" fuselage was
being transferred to another museum again and this time was loaded on a flatbed truck. While in
transit the truck carrying the fuselage was involved in an accident, wrecking not only the truck
but "Command Decision" as well. At this point the museum acquired the fuselage of 44-62139 and
repainted in the markings of and displayed it as "Command Decision".
The fuselage and nose on display at the USAF Museum marked as 44-87657 are actually 44-62139.

Named ‘American Beauty’
Assigned to 30th Bomb Squadron, 19th Bomb Group, Andersen AFB, Guam. Deployed to Kadena AB, Okinawa
Named ‘Night-Mare!’. Named ‘Koza Kid’. Named ‘Ugly’
When 44-87661 joined the 792nd Bomb Squadron of the 58th Bomb Wings 468th Bomb Group the plane had
nose art applied to the left nose: a shooting star with the plane’s name –AMERICAN BEAUTY– contained
within the lines outlining the tail of the star. Forward of the name and the mission symbols there
was a portrait of a young lady. By 1949-50, 44-87661 was now a member of the 19th Bomb Group and
the AMERICAN BEAUTY nose art has completely disappeared. In its place is a cartoon caricature
of an ugly person. The name of the plane is now, appropriately, NIGHT–MARE! It remained while
the Group made a hurried move to Kadena, Okinawa on 27 June 1950 to start flying combat missions
in the Korean War. Sometime later, most probably late 1951, two things
must have occurred that affected the name of the plane. First, all members of the ground crew
that gave the plane its 1949-50 name would have rotated back to the States, and second, the men
of the new crew had gone into the village of Koza, just outside the Gate at Kadena, and were
not impressed with the local lovelies. So little impressed, in fact, that they took NIGHT-MARE!
off the nose and painted in KOZA KID. In some manner the locals heard of the new name and were not
happy. They were so unhappy that they took their case to the Group Commander, who caved in.
And thus NIGHT-MARE/KOZA KID became just plain UGLY. Reclaimed at McClellan AFB, CA 14Jul54

88674 (MSN 891) [M27], 135th Base Unit, 1st AF, Millville Field, NJ; Accident 20Sep45 at Millville.
The pilot approached the runway with three other aircraft. While in the turn from base leg
of the landing pattern, his left foot became wedged between the rudder pedal and the foot
guide on the floor board section. This made him unable to apply opposite rudder to recover
from the turn, thus enticing a roll to the left. He applied throttle to aid his recovery
but the engine sputtered and did not catch until just before the aircraft hit the ground.
During this time he tried to jerk his left foot out of the shoe and did so just before
contact with the ground.

89136 (MSN 1353) In the USAAF was flown by the Puerto Rico ANG but passed on to the
Nicaraguan Air Force in June 1954. The Nicaraguans lent the plane to the
Guatemalan Air Force in which it served as 0658, but it was later returned and became GN-71.
In February 1963 the plane was bought by an American, Lloyd P. Nolen, and became one
of the first fighters in what would become the CAF (then Confederate Air Force)
Registered as M479C. Reregistered as N47TB with American Airpower Heritage Flying Museum of
Midland, TX Sep 6, 1991. . The P-47 used to fly in the colours of ’44-88211’
‘Lil Meaties’ / ‘Meat Chopper’
with code ‘146’. This was the wartime ‘jug’ as was flown by Lt. Oscar Perdomo in
Le Shima in August 1945. Crashed Apr 29, 1972, repaired. Severely damaged when it was
engulfed in flames as the result of an engine fire during take-off at Albuquerque IAP, NM
on March 21, 2002. Pilot was slightly injured
For a long period the CAF kept the remains of the P-47 in storage, but in 2015 the plans
for a restoration were initiated. At that time the registration of the Thunderbolt
was changed from N47TB into N844WA
The Georgia Wing of the Commemorative Air Force announced that Republic P-47N Thunderbolt
to-be restored N844WA arrived at their Peachtree City (GA) facilities on 1 August 2022.

Confederate AF, Harlingen, TX 1970; Crashed 29Apr71 when struck a tree during a forced
landing due fuel expiry, Vero Beach, FL; Rebuilt 1976, later flew as USAAF "UN-S";
Damaged 23Mar84 when right landing gear collapsed on landing; Loaned to Cavanaugh Flight
Museum, Addison, Dallas, TX 1994/2008. On approach to land at Addison 16Oct00, a brake
check found the right brake not working. Upon touch down the right brake was locked and
left brake was applied to stabilize landing. As a result of the locked brake and heavy
brake action, the aircraft departed the runway and nosed over. Repaired, flew
as "Lil Meaties Meat Chopper".
On March 22, 2002 the aircraft was substantially damaged when it impacted the runway
during an emergency landing just after take-off from the Albuquerque International Airport,
Albuquerque, NM. The flight was the first since the engine had been overhauled.
During the initial take-off climb, just as the pilot reached for the landing gear lever,
the cockpit filled with black smoke, and the engine began to lose power. The tower controller
then reported to the pilot that the airplane was on fire. The pilot executed a forced
landing back to the runway, which had some length remaining. The airplane impacted the
ground, and an intense fire erupted (the pilot observed a flash fire through the cockpit).
The airplane slid 1,000 feet and came to rest upright. Examination of the airplane
revealed that the exhaust interconnect tube to the exhaust collector for the #10 cylinder
was protruding through the inlet duct of the lower cheek cowl, and was disconnected
from the cylinder. The area around the opening exhibited severe heat distress,
consistent with a fire. Registered to and operated by the American Airpower Heritage
Flying Museum Inc., of Midland, TX, doing business as the Commemorative AF. Current [Jan17]

of Howard Parks of the 513th Squadron, 406th Fighter Group in Belgium in 1945, but
the profanity in its name presented problems with airshow bookings in the more
puritanical parts of the United States, so it was repainted as 44-33240 “Tarheel Hal” of “Ike” Davis
of the 356th Squadron, 358th Fighter Group at Toul Air Base, France, in January 1945.
“Tar heel” is a nickname for people from North Carolina, probably related to the tar-seeping
pine trees that at one time were important to the state’s economy; Lone Star Flight Museum,

and name “Jackie’s Revenge,” which are not authentic to the rest of the paint scheme,
were applied by current owner the American Airpower Museum, Jackie being the wife of the
museum owner-benefactor]. On May 27, 2016 the Thunderbolt ditched in the Hudson River
following a reported loss of engine power. The pilot was fatally injured and the airplane
was substantially damaged. The local flight originated from Republic Airport (FRG),
Farmingdale, New York. The accident aircraft was part of a three-ship formation and the
pilot was participating in a photo shoot. During the flight, the pilot made a distress
call and subsequently ditched the airplane in the Hudson River, south of the George
Washington Bridge. The airplane impacted the water and sank. Attempts to rescue the
pilot were unsuccessful. The wreckage was recovered from the river the following day and
was transported to the West 30th Street Heliport, New York. A cursory examination of the
engine revealed that the number 18 cylinder was damaged, consistent with an in-flight occurrence.

44-91000/91001 Convair XP-81
Single-seat long range excort fighter with both turbojet and turboprop engines. Redexignated ZXF-81
91000 Completed January 1945 but because of developmental problems the turbopropeller engine was not ready for installation.
A decision was made to mount a V-1650-7 Merlin engine package from a P-51D aircraft in place of the turboprop for initial flight tests.
To Muroc, CA; first flight 11Feb45. Returned to Vultee Field, Downey, CA for installation of the General Electric TG-110 (XT41)
turboprop engine. First flight by an American turboprop-powered aircraft on 21Dec45. Consigned to a bombing range as
photography targets 1947. In storage at the National Museum of the USAF near Dayton, Ohio.

44-91002/91003 Republic XF-12A-RE
Redesignated XR-12A-RE Jun 11, 1948. Reconnaissance aircraft that incorporated an onboard dark room for development of films.
91002 first flight Feb 4, 1946. Damaged in landing on July 10, 1947. The aircraft was undergoing maximum landing
weight tests. During one particularly hard landing, the right main gear was severed at the engine nacelle. The
aircraft bounced hard, and staggered back into the air. The test pilot was able to maintain control, and climb to
a safe altitude. He continued to fly the aircraft to burn off excess fuel, to both make the aircraft lighter and
lessen the chance of fire. Once excess fuel was burned off, the pilot landed on the left main gear and the nose
wheel. The pilot touched down, and while keeping the right wing up, scrubbed off as much speed as possible before
it touched down. During the incident the aircraft suffered significant damage. The right wing spar was cracked,
and the #3 and #4 engines and props needed to be replaced due to the ground contact. The aircraft was repaired
by Republic, and later returned to service in 1948. In June 1952, the aircraft was retired, stricken from the
U.S. AF inventory and ended up as a target on the Aberdeen Proving Ground, Maryland.
91003 on Sep 1, 1948, the aircraft departed U.S. AF Flight Test Center at Muroc, California, and climbed westward
to gain altitude over the Pacific Ocean. Upon reaching its 40,000 ft cruising altitude, the XF-12 headed
eastward and began photographing its entire flight path over the United States. The crew shot a continuous
325 foot-long strip of film composed of 390 individual photos (10 inches per photo) covering a 490-mile-wide
field of vision. The aircraft landed at Mitchel Field at Garden City, Long Island, New York, completing a
flight lasting six hours and 55 minutes at 361 mph average speed.
Crashed in Choctawhatchee Bay 2 miles south of Eglin AFB, FL Nov 7, 1948. 2 of 7-man crew killed. The inner port
engine exploded as the aircraft was returning from a photographic suitability test flight. Pilot was unable to
maintain control and ordered the crew to bail out. 5 of the seven escaped safely, including the pilot.

15 killed, 2 survived with major injuries. However, there is uncertainty about the
actual cause of the accident. It may have happened that the aircraft was airborne briefly for a quarter mile
when one starboard engine began backfiring and caught fire, followed by the
shutdown of all six engines. There may have been a nuclear bomb aboard, which may be the
reason for the high amount of secrecy surrounding this incident.

11th Bombardment Wing, Carswell AFB, Fort Worth, TX. Damaged 9/1/52 by tornado at Carswell AFB.
Not returned to service. Aircraft was salvaged to assist repair to the other B-36 aircraft
damaged by the tornado, 24 seriously. The remains of the airframe were later shipped to
Sandia Labs in Albuquerque, New Mexico where it was used to fit-check new atomic bomb
shapes and as a weapons loader trainer. Parts may have been used later during various
nuclear tests in Nevada.

92075 Accepted by USAF Aug49. Damaged by mechanical failure at Carswell AFB 3Aug49. 436th Bombardment
Squadron, 7th Bombardment Wing, Carswell AFB, Fort Worth, TX. crashed Feb 13, 1950 in northern
British Columbia due to carburetor icing and engine fires. . The aircraft had been enroute from
Eielson Air Force Base near Fairbanks, Alaska to Carswell AFB in Fort Worth, Texas,
more than 3000 miles south-east, on a mission that included a simulated nuclear attack on
San Francisco. 5 lost in bailout at night over water. The Mark 4 nuclear bomb that the plane
was carrying was jettisoned and detonated in mid-air, resulting in a large conventional
explosion over the Inside Passage. The aircraft commander steered the plane over Princess Royal
Island to spare his crew having to parachute into the cold North Pacific, whereupon the crew bailed out.
Before bailing out last, he set a turning course toward the open ocean using the autopilot.
Five crew perished after bailing out. Unexpectedly, the B-36 continued to fly for over two
hundred miles and crashed in the mountains of British Columbia. Three years later, a RCAF flight
spotted the B-36's wreckage. It was found on the side of Mount Kologet, about 50 miles (80 km)
east of the Alaskan border, roughly due east of the towns of Stewart, British Columbia and
Hyder, Alaska, on the east side of the isolated Nass Basin northwest of Hazelton, British Columbia.
