That's a magnificent B-57 Canberra bomber. My father used to maintain ejection systems on EB-57 variant. They were started with a gunpowder charge and had the most unique sounding engines. They were even graceful on the ground. Thanks for posting that anon! He's gone now but my favorite picture of him is on the wall next to me, in uniform, wearing his B-57 hat on TDY in Frankfurt, Germany.
