The Hustler was a real window breaker in it's day.


The B-58 is at 1:10


Nice Hollywood look at the B-36.

Back when dirt was new and I was but a young Plane Captain in the Marines we had one visit our line. I was the one assigned to service and launch it. It's a thing of beauty.

The 58 is a fine piece of work! It was before my time, but I did get to see the 106s and 105s right at the end of their service life.

Never seen a 105 fly, but 106's used to fly chase from Edwards when the (still new) B-1s would fly touch and go's at George AFB when I was there in the late 80s.

There is an F-100F (privately owned) that flies out of Ft Wayne a couple times a year...very cool to see it. smile

Would have loved to see Grissom AFB back in the day when Hustlers were based there, but all I've seen in my lifetime there are KC-135s, A-10s, and T-38s.

There's just something about those century series fighters!

Sounds like a very cool experience to have had during your time in the service.
