Famous Airplanes #125: Convair B-36 Peacemaker

Description

This is a Japanese-language book or magazine about aircraft and/or aircraft modeling. Some Japanese aircraft books, such as the Aero Detail series contain complete English text as well. See the product description below for details.

A Japanese-language book devoted to the development and history of the “Big Stick,” the Convair B-36 Peacemaker. Aptly called the “magnesium overcast” due to its imposing size, the B-36 was the world’s largest bomber when it first flew in 1946, and still holds the record as the largest-ever combat aircraft. This softcover volume in the Famous Airplanes of the World series features lots of black-and-white as well as color photographs of the type in use, plus detail shots, and plenty of detail diagrams, many taken directly from the pilot’s manual. A valuable reference for those with the Monogram kit on their shelves!
