B-36 Peacemaker
Does anyone know where I can find plans (of any scale) for a B-36 Peacemaker??? My Grandfather was ground crew for this massive plane and I would love to build it. In case you haven't seen one- it has Six pusher props and a jet pod on either wingtip (with two jets in each pod)[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] . Thanks for your help fellas.

I know of someone building an appx 32 ft long model of the B-36... (anyway, he needed a custom built 32 ft traier to haul the fuselage...)
Might be flying this year. If it is, it'll be at the Waco, TX Big-Bird Fly-in June 14. (if it isn't he should be hauling it there for display anyway...)

I got a nice set of plans off of EBay... electric powered, managable size but still big...
They are out of Electric Flight International, plan #MW2786 designed by John Considine. Uses 6 speed 400s...
Hope this helps!

There were two B-36's at Bomber field this weekend. They flew well and fast. You might contact someone at Bomber field to get the pilot information. They had somewhere in the 6'-8' wingspan range.
