| Air Museum Pics - Castle Air Museum Great day. Only a few of the planes were rare like the B-18. B-23 and B-36 but the collection was impressive. where else can you see a B17 B18 B23 B24 B25 A26 B29 B36 B45 B47 B50 B52 B57 and a Vulcan in one place! Plus a lot more..  .: Castle Air Museum - Atwater, California :. . Last edited by comiso90; 08-18-2008 at 02:47 AM. |

| Look how low the clearance is on the F-86 tank and how thin the tire is on the voodoo. Also not the wing gear for the B-52 and the supercharger on a B-24 |

| The CF 100 still has the EW pods on but since its from 414Sqn the Canadian EW squadron it makes sense |

| Funny how the B-18 looks so much more primitive than the B-17. Looks like the B-18 would be escorted by P-26's but the B-17 looks just fine along Mustangs. . |

| This is on the site of a B-52 base that closed in the 90's. I can see why they leantowards bombers. It's very interesting to see the evolution from the B18 to the B52 |

| Excellent. My vote for the prettiest jet bomber of all time is the B47
