Thanks so much, I really appreciate the help, and I'm tremendously sorry to screw up again. But after all, come on, folks, who would look at one of the most advanced aircraft facilities in the world and expect to see a massive relic from sixty years ago! It's amazing how the dimensions and design are so similar, the distance between the engine cowlings, the total wingspan, the camber of the wing, everything seemed to match perfectly. It's almost as if the B-36 is nothing more than a big tube attached to a YB-35! What really threw me off about the satellite pic was the fact that even with maximum magnification I can't see any sign of where it blends with the fuselage.
But thanks a lot for the help, all I can say is, I'm an idiot, and I'm sorry.
