3.0 out of 5 starsGood Factual Account of the rescue, but ...
By Richard T. Leitner on April 26, 2013
Format: Paperback Verified Purchase
... the author kind of grasps when it comes to various theories about "why" or "how" the aircraft ended up where it did. He does not, in my opinion, make a very good case that there is some big conspiracy or coverup regarding the aircraft. Statements by marginally qualified persons that "someone must have flown the plane" to its final resting place or "... there's no way they were flying without a live core ..." simply don't have the evidence they need to back them up. Reports of transmissions from the aircraft that lead the author to state " ..it is safe to assume that the authorities were aware that the B-36 had been in the air for another three hours beyond the official time of the crash" are also suspect, as those very same frequencies (such as the CW emergency frequency of 500Khz) could easily have been used by others during that time. One laughable statement I found was "Moreover, Americans generally have great trust in their government."; this refers to the oath of secrecy that many of the airman of Strategic Air Command took. Okay, I know it was 1950 and perhaps US citizens were not quite as skeptical then as now, but the inclusion of this statement seems to show a profound lack of understanding of Americans in general. The fact that SAC was very secretive was standard operating procedure then and later, and this in no way makes the methods with which they treated the crash any different from any others. The best evidence he has in this section is an environmental study that showed virtually no radiation at the crash site, deflating a number of his theories of a "live bomb" coverup and lending credibility to the crews' assertion that they jettisoned the bomb (without the live core) and exploded it in mid-air. This might also explain why the aircraft began to climb again ...Read more ›

If you into learning about all the various planes and their designs then this book is for you. I thought the book would be about the finding of the bomb, it is not. I regret buying this book.

5.0 out of 5 starsfascinating read
By Scott Simmons on December 23, 2013
Format: Paperback
Found the book on the Ferry to Vancouver on my way to Cuba. While in Cuba spend a few days finding the missile sites. Dirks book was a great read for a history buff. Very descriptive and informative tale of an era that was not that long ago but seems like a different world. Hard to believe a Nuke could go missing. Will have to go up there and find the site. Thanks Dirk it was a pure joy to read. So detailed and informative. Glad BC Ferries had it on the ship.
