This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

according to
www.bookrags.com/wiki/Convair_B-36 a total of 10 were lost between 1949 and 1954, 3 B's, 3 D's, and 4 H's and 4 and one half remain. There's one on a mountainside in British Columbia that crashed and caused quite a flap as I think she had a nuke on board-the remains of the remains are still on the mountainside.
