Does anyone remember the date when the F-100 shot down the B-52 over New Mexico?

April 7, 1961.

Must be...about the closest to Logan I have ever heard of.....have you any history on the accedent?

Gary,

Rob Hill (a really nice guy) in Rio Rancho, NM has files on many U.S. crash sites, he has visited and phographed the remains, and has extensive data on each one of them; I have personally seen the file on that particular B-52, as well as others on B-36, B-17, etc.

Press "2" to disconnect until you have learned to speak English.

Sooooo, how am I going to know to press 1 or 2, if I do not speak English????

FYI,
The June, 1962 edition of RAF Flying Review has a great account of the shootdown, written by none other than Walt Boyne.
