Previously, I posted about the Graveyard for the Covair B-36 Bombers. Feb 12, 2009 marks the 50th anniversary of the last operational flight of a B-36.
I also found this video about the dismantling of the giant bombers:
Update - this was the last operational flight. B-36J AF Serial No. 52-2220, is on display at the National Museum of the United States Air Force (formerly The U.S. Air Force Museum) at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base near Dayton, Ohio. Its flight to the museum from Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona on April 30, 1959 was the last flight of a B-36.
