"Six Turning, Four Burning". The awesome B-36, surely one of Pima's most spectacular exhibits. On 14th August 1954 this Peacemaker became the last to be delivered, but by 1959 with the advent of SAC's jet bombers, all had finished their service lives. Moved in sections from preservation at Fort Worth, TX to Pima and reassembled there between 2005 and 2009.
