Volume 102 of the "Warpaint series". To counter the possible fall of Britain to Germany the USAAF was ordered to investigate a long range bomber capable of flying to Germany and back. The B 36 was intended to have a range of 10.000 miles and could need to be airbourne for nigh on two days to achieve this all skin and component joints were to be made as smooth as possible. Designed with both the aircraft enthusiast and the modeller in mind, this series offers a comprehensive and accurate account of a single aircraft type within each issue. Drawings provided in both colour side and plan view with 1:72 scale plans, kit decal and accessory lists, squadrons, units and individual aircraft serials in codes, etc.
