Built as a B-45A then converted to B-45C photo-reconnaissance as indicated by the lack of glazing for the bomb-aimer in the nose. Stolen on 13 June 1958 by a non-pilot airman, who took off from Alconbury Air Base, UK and crashed three minutes later. This photo was added on 1 September 2021, and has since been viewed 637 times. |
