That B-58 was a fabulous looking aircraft - these pictures take me
straight back to the plastic models I had when I was a boy (some
while ago!)

It's scary, but just as I was opening your reply, I was thinking the same
thing. We need to be careful dating ourselves like that.

They were still active when I joined the AF in 1956. Does that date me or
what.

Thanks for these photos of the best looking Bomber ever. (Although just a
tick better than the B-1}. On landing the procedure was to keep the nose up
until the last few hundred feet.

I am not a fan of most jet bombers, but this one is the exception....
