dc.description | Photo of a B-36 airplane. On reverse: "FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Taking off from General Dynamics Corporation's Convair-Fort Worth plant on August 14, 1954, was the last globe-spanning B-36 intercontinental bomber to come off the production line. This same bomber is scheduled to return to Fort Worth on February 12, 1959, to be decommissioned from service as the last B-36 of the Air Force's Strategic Air Command. Following the decommissioning, the aircraft will remain at Amon Carter Field in Fort Worth, Texas, as a memorial to the many citizens and Air Force personnel of the city who had a part in the plane's development." | |
