Martin EB-57B Canberra 52-1519 U.S. Air Force
The museum’s B-57B began life as a “D” model bomber and was delivered to the Air Force on March 29, 1955. After storage at the “boneyard” at Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ, from 1969-1972, it was converted in 1973 to an EB-57B for an Electronic Counter-Measures (ECM) role. In Dec 1981 it made the final flight to the museum at March AFB after 7,727.5 flight hours.

The Vermont ANG 134th FS / 158th FG ‘Green Mountain Boys’ have operated an interesting selection of aircraft over the last 40 years. They flew the intercept mission using F-102 Delta Daggers, then traded these in for the EB-57B and adopted the defence systems evaluation role in 1974. | picture Les Spearman
