"BTW the B36 was being designed in the event England fell and we had to bomb from Nova Scotia."

And a top contender for ugliest aircraft ever was the little F-85 Goblin parasite fighter designed to "escort" the B36...

There’s a Goblin as well as a B-36 at the museum at Offutt, AFB (at least, there were back in ‘92ish). Recommended if you’re in the area.
