Flying Dutchman of British Columbia: The Bomber 075 Enigma

On a cold, cloudy night over British Columbia in 1950, the crew of a massive B-36 bomber are forced to bail out over forbidding terrain after three of the six engines catch fire. Several of the men are lost, but the aircraft itself is found years later, over 300 km away, a discovery that has left an enduring mystery.

John Clearwater’s Broken Arrow is my favorite resource on this topic, as he focuses more narrowly on the most credible theories and provides transcripts of some of the key official documentation on the incident and search.
