A tornado damaged almost all B-36 bombers of the 7th and 11th BW stationed on Carswell AFB. All aircraft except 44-92051 could be repaired, but this aircraft had been completely blown off the pavement into a ravine. It was beyond repair as the fuselage was broken in half and the tail assembly and left wing were severed.
