Strategic Air Command Film

For those of you with Sky and a liking of 1950s jets, you can currently watch Strategic Air Command on the Sky Go Player, with lots of B36 and B47s, a somewhat wooden propaganda type plot and of course the former Brigadier General James Stewart.

A Classic

OK wooden acting but great shots of the big bombers of the 1950s...

The B36 for example, props turning, brakes squealing and turbines burning.

The elegant B47 which I remember seeing at Greenham Common in the 1960s

Ahhhhh
