Summary[edit]

Description

Personnel and equipment required to get and keep a B-36 Peacemaker airplane in the air. Reading from front to back, left to right, the personnel represent:

  • the wing commander;
  • the ground and squadron commanders;
  • administrative personnel;
  • a cook representing personnel that feed the men and prepare the food for the missions;
  • the line chief whose responsibility it is to see that all the planes in his squadron are properly maintained;
  • the crew chief and his crew of fifteen men, who are responsible for the maintenance on this particular aircraft;
  • the men who fly the plane;
  • the gasoline and oil trucks required to keep the bomber fully loaded with fuel, 21,116 gallons of gasoline and 1,200 gallons of oil;
  • an example of a small bomb load that is usually taken on a practice mission;
  • an ambulance that is on hand in the event of an accident;
  • hospital personnel;
  • a fire truck that is on hand when the plane starts its engines or making an emergency landing;
  • and a load of oxygen bottles. (The B-36 is pressurized, however, in the event of an emergency when the plane is at a high altitude, oxygen may be used.)
Others not shown in this photograph that help, are the control tower operator that clears the plane for its taxiing, takeoffs and landings; the radar and radio maintenance personnel; and the air police. (35709 A.C.)
