In this Google Maps image, what are the 3 aircraft in the center of the image with the huge wings?
Oh, and in addition, if you look at the eastern part of the yard, there’s quite a bit of, stuff, sorted out. What is all that stuff?
Those are WB-57s. Hit google images with [WB-57] for lots more good photos.
The aircraft is a high-altitude modification to the basic B-57, of which you can see 4 examples off to the left of your 3 WB-57s.
SOme additional googling will tell you allabout their mission doing high altitude weather reasearch as wellas nuclear testing monitoring.
Wow - quite the quick response. Thanks! I never heard of that plane before now. That’s also quite the modification with respect to the wings.
According to Google Earth, much of it is the equipment that was used to manufacture the B-1.
