Carswell AFB 1952

My tech school instructor was just a young one striper stationed at Carswell back in '52 when a tornado hit the base on Labor Day...he said he had taken off that weekend to visit his family in Florida at the time...what a mess afterwards he said.

Remembering the 1952 Carswell AFB Tornado that damaged two-thirds of SAC’s B-36 Force - The Aviation Geek Club

 

..they are so huge! the B 17 looks like a toy..so does the B29

 

Try and visit the Pima Air & Space Museum in Tucson, Arizona...we once spent hours looking around.
