I'm in Seattle visiting the kids. I took my grand daughter to the Museum of Flight and snapped the pic of the B-47 wing just for John.Kolb related only in that you can review the entire history of manned (personed?) flight from DaVinci to the present. Highly recommended.

Rick G/Gang:

Thanks for thinking of me. Wink

B-47 wing is way to big for my mkIII.  Besides, the B-47 wing experienced the same problems with wing twist as the Kolb Ultrastar. Aileron input causes the wing to twist, there by canceling out the aileron input. One of my old ultralight buddies, a B-47 pilot, gave my EAA Chapter 822 a very informative briefing on his experiences flying that old bird.

From my poor eyesight, looks like the paint is coming off the leading edge of the wing or it may be VGs to reattach the air that is disturbed by the engine and its mount.

One would occasionally taxi from the transient hangar past our ADC hangar. Odd looking critters, almost a taildragger.
Another strange beast was the RB-57 Canberra which also came past with its unusual engine sounds.
The rescue group operated the Kaman mixmaster with a fire bottle slung beneath.
It would have made a nice camper machine.
