Anyone want to recreate this beauty for FSX/XP? Ten, TEN, engines! ("Six turning, four burning")

Had an uncle who was loadmaster on a B36 that in the late1950's was converted into a mid-air refueling tanker.  One of only two that were so converted if I recall.

Check for one at FlyAway Simulation.  I checked my flight log and see I logged a few hours in one in 2013 before my current system build.

Trivia:

On of my CAF buddies was a crew chief on the B36.  Talk about a guy with some stories. :)

I believe this is the B36 that was on display at the ol' Great Southwest Airport in Ft. Worth.
