Watch a gigantic Convair B-36 performing a super low flyby over Forth Worth neighbourhood.
The following footage consists of two clips: the first one shows a standard Peacemaker take off and climb out as it could be seen from Riglea area, south of Carswell AFB. The second clip instead shows a very low pass that ripped TV antennas from roofs and severely damaged homes.
Built as a high altitude strategic bomber, this very low-level flyby seems a bit too risky for a B-36, still this video is quite impressive and it shows the Peacemaker as you have never seen before!
