    Wow, sewing the fabric by hand, what a tedious job! People these days have no idea. Also loved the room full of engineers working on drawings…with pencils! Excellent video, very informative. This flying boat has become an obsession of mine, so beautiful and awesome! A bit confused though, I thought they couldn’t take off with 1 engine down. Also, I heard they couldn’t handle rough waters long without eventual damage.

    My father was stationed at Sheppard AFB '59-'61. The Hustler's from Carswell AFB would do touch and goes on the long runway as B-52's were also stationed at Sheppard. We lived in base housing off the end of the runway. As a kid, being able to witness the Hustler's pull away at full throttle standing on their tails was amazing. I believe I built at least three models of the B-58. Too bad the ICBM's made them irrelevant.

    The US announcement to develop a hydrogen bomb was only a few months earlier in Jan 1950- no one had any idea what one would weigh but that it would likely be the maximum for a B-36. The AF was certainly doing the flight to see if it could be done - putting a 28k bomb in the rear and 12k in the front to equal 40k, near the max for a single bomb bay (maybe only had a 28k conventional bomb available). The takeoff weight problem was probably not the bombs but the needed high fuel load.
