Corps Crashed Damaged Landing Martin Rhinelander
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a United States Army Air Corps Martin B-10B bomber, specifically identified as 34-100 (msn 631), in its prime condition around the late 1930s. The B-10B was a twin-engine, medium bomber produced by the Glenn L. Martin Company for the United States Army Air Corps. The image captures the sleek design and robustness of this military aircraft, with its distinctive rounded nose and twin-boom tail configuration. The B-10B was a significant advancement in military aviation technology during that era, boasting a top speed of 207 miles per hour and a range of over 1,000 miles. However, this particular B-10B, registered as 34-100, suffered a setback in its service history. On 1 June 1939, while landing at Rhinelander, Wisconsin, the aircraft sustained damage. Although the exact circumstances of the incident are not known, the photograph provides a poignant reminder of the risks and challenges faced by the brave men and women who flew these machines during that time. Despite this mishap, the United States Army Air Corps continued to rely on the B-10B as a crucial component of its fleet, with over 200 examples produced between 1936 and 1939. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of the Martin B-10B and the indomitable spirit of the military aviators who flew them.
