Sys. Labs, South Plainfield NJ Lines: 10 <> I'm curious as to why the B-58 Hustler was dropped from Air Force use. My only memory of it is a plastic model I built as a kid. Can anyone tell us about how many were put into service, what its deficiencies were, and why it disappeared? Jim Beckman AT&T-ISL South Plainfield, NJ eisx!jeb
