A Very Unexpected Discovery, B-36 Peacemaker

[wwwarbird]

There ia a KYO kit of the B-36  on E-Bay right now.  Goes off tomorrow I think.
  go To  the bay, search for B-36 and it will come uo (amidst a lot of bras in 36B sizes)
  Last time I looked this morning it was still at a reasonable price in the low $200s

  There are lots of plans out there for the old Eureka and KYO  kits.  There ia a KYO kit of the B-36  on E-Bay right now.  Goes off tomorrow I think.

   That kit sold at a measly price af only $510.99

I'm so old I remember when these things were flying out of Carswell AFB.

  I  might have been on one of those that you listened to---- so that makes me older than you.   That was a more fun time of my life.

<<BTW, wouldn't that model be an ideal candidate for electric power?>>



   There is an electric B-36 being built (RC) that is 257 inch wingspan.
  now THAT is a BIG model
  It can be found on the RCGroups forum--aidcraft,electric--airplanes,  then to Giant scale models,   then to 257" B-36   blah blah ... .

   Kyo and Eureka built at least three different sizes of the B-29, so I would think that possibly they did the same with the B-36

257 inches is over 21 feet.  Forget RC and CL.  Just put in flight controls and ride in it.
