The Martin B26 was extremely dangerous during takeoff. If you lost an engine you were done and the had problems with the engine and props during takeoff. The last flying B26 went down 5 to 10 years ago. Lost an engine on takeoff, none survived.

Actually that was "Carolyn", the beautiful aircraft shown in post 8 above. Flown by Confederate AF for years until the accident in September 1995. Probable cause, as determined by NTSB:

the failure of the pilot to maintain minimum airspeed for flight resulting in an inadvertent stall/spin. Factors were the loss of power for undetermined reasons, and the pilot's lack of recent flight experience in the aircraft.
