    • I always forget about those bombers. Consolidated B-32 Dominator. ") was a heavy bomber made for United States Army Air Forces during World War II, and had the distinction of being the last Allied aircraft to be engaged in combat during World War II. It was developed in parallel with the Boeing B-29 Superfortress as a fallback design should the B-29 prove unsuccessful.[1] The B-32 only reached units in the Pacific during mid-1945, and subsequently only saw limited combat operations against Japanese targets before the end of the war. Most of the extant orders of the B-32 were cancelled shortly thereafter and only 118 B-32 airframes of all types were built." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consol...B-32_Dominator

        Looking at it again.... I think I have my directions backwards.... Meh, what ever. Hell of a sight in BOTH directions.

                B-32 Dominator. They saw VERY limited service at the very end of the war.

                            It means to cum very quickly. It's a novelty sign, nothing to do with the airplane haha.

                                Awesome...

                                Did my first solo landings at Alliance.

                                The runway was so big I probably could have landed the 172 sideways....

                                :-)
