I've become interested in the plane because I'm looking for a new RC
project to design and build. THat big wing will mean a light wing
loading, always a good thing flying off grass. Assymetric thrust might
be an issue should I lose one of the engines. I guess time will tell.
In the mean time learning more about the plane and the missions will be fun.


Hi

Go here for B-57 and Doom Pussy info. Say hello.

Are any B-57s in private hands?

Hi Dan

There is (or at least was) a guy in the U.S. that owns (owned) a former
R.A.A.F. Canberra B. Mk. 20 a couple of years ago.

Cheers...Chris

It's still there, sadly it was damaged beyond repair during shipping or
servicing (CRW) and is unlikely to fly again ;-(
