  In the foreground is the XC-99 model. Even more interesting is the model behind and to the left. Basically a reworked B-36 Peacemaker with swept wings and 8 Pratt and Whitney J57 jet engines, Convair proposed this aircraft to the Air Force as the YB-60. Two aircraft were built, but the faster and better flying Boeing B-52 Stratofortress won the contract.

  I remember the model being in storage. I don't know what happened to it.

An experimental scale model of the B-25 plane is prepared for wind tunnel tests in the plant of North American Aviation, Inc., Inglewood, Calif. This plant produced the B-25 bomber (LOC)
