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

Cool to see stuff from the 50's that was 'the deal' @ the time. @ 2:07 it looks like the USAF operated a tanker I wasn't familiar with as the happy A/C commander is flying what looks like a C-119 'ah what the heck, it's got lots of windows just like a B-50'

Been there and done that. We quickly learned that the hose whip could be stopped by moving the basket a little left or right after hook up which put a small loop in the hose and stopped the whip.

More stories on that or anything else of the period would be appreciated!

I love the B-50!
