B-36: SAVING THE LAST PEACEMAKER

FROM THE FOREWORD TO
B-36: SAVING THE LAST PEACEMAKER
THIRD EDITION

"And that is exactly what this third edition of  B-36: Saving the Last Peacemaker has done—made a similar unforgettable impression, for surely it is the finest loving salute ever made to any aircraft at any time.  No great celebrity could ever do better than to have his or her biography done in a similar manner, with such comprehensive photography, excellent documentation, and attention to detail.  Leaving aside for a moment the heroic story of the life, near death and redemption of B-36J-III-10-CF 52-2827A, I would like to call attention to the quality of the CD for purely technical reasons.  Anyone wishing to do a similar task would be wise to obtain this CD and study it, for it provides a gripping story line, beautiful photography, and perfect organization."

Walter J. Boyne
Co-founder and former director of Smithsonian Institution's National Air & Space Museum and founder of Air & Space magazine.

"Don Pyeatt has assembled an excellent record of the history of the last Peacemaker ever built, B-36J-III-10-CF, serial number 52-2827A.  I wholeheartedly recommend this CD as a part of any aviation enthusiast's library.  It is a fascinating story, and one I thoroughly enjoyed reading.".

Dennis R. Jenkins
Aviation Writer and Historian

"I highly recommend this CD that tells the in-depth history of the Last B-36, the stupendous effort and dedication of men and women who made an effort to preserve it for future generations, and the cold war mission of this magnificent flying machine."

William M. Guy, Brigadier General USAF (ret)
