Description: "High Altitude Hustle" features a lone Convair B-58 Hustler Strategic Air Command bomber flying at high altitude above a broken deck of clouds. B-58 Hustler development began in 1950 when the U.S. Air Force contracted Fort Worth, Texas, aircraft manufacturer Convair to design an intercontinental bomber to strike targets at speeds in excess of Mach one. The B-58's design began as a parasite aircraft that would make a supersonic dash to the target to drop its nuclear bomb pod. It was later redesigned as a conventional bomber with air refueling.Convair won a Phase 1 contract in 1952 and the aircraft was given the designation B-58. The Hustler took its first flight on November 11, 1956. After the plane's acceptance by the USAF, Hustler aircrews wasted no time breaking speed records and winning major aeronautical trophies (Bendix, Thompson, Bleriot, Harmon, and Mackay). This striking 24X36 inch giclee fine art print is limited to a run of 20 hand-signed and numbered editions. Each is printed on 60 Lb. acid-free archival paper to retain its vivid colors for many years with proper care. A Certificate of Authenticity, bearing my signature, the print number, and other information, accompanies each print. A portion of your purchase goes to the Gary Sinise Foundation.
