Hello, fellow builders!
I am in a little bit of a pickle- I want to build a 144 scale reconnaissance variant of the B-36, but I cant find a schematic for a recon version.
Consequently, I cant build any one particular aircraft. If any one has info on the particular markings on any one RB-36 I would eternally be grateful!
Many thanks!

Google is your friend. RB-36s wore fairly plain markings for the most part. The Hobbycraft kit should have a correct set of decals already in it.

Try the Airforce Meseume in Dayton Ohio at WPAFB, they have a restored B-36 with the camera about the size of a small bus
I hope this helps
