Finally figured out layers.. I know the B-47 is kind of messy, but I'll work on it. Also I'm not too fond of the lighting, I think I overdid it a bit.. but too late now. Let me know what you think.

I've never heard of that....

An interesting fact here is, that the KC-97 was a slow piston engined aircraft, so everytime the KC-97 fueled up those fast jets, the KC-97 and the plane being refueled, would actually descent during the refueling - for the KC-97 to keep up enough speed.


Nice edit James, like you said the lighting seems a bit "off", but other than, very nice.

Very interesting pic James.  :)

I've never heard of that....

It's just one of the USAF variants of the civilian Boeing 377 Stratocruiser.

Cool, very 'cold-war'ish...
