In this episode of The 406 Life, your host Montana Max—takes you back to 1952, when a roaring B-29 Superfortress went down in flames near Phillipsburg. Hear the wild true story of how twelve airmen parachuted to safety, what happened when the bomber slammed into Mount Stuart, and why pieces of that fiery bird can still be found in the mountains today.

Mix in some Montana history, a dash of small-town resilience, and a whole lot of Bigfoot humor, and you’ve got one unforgettable ride.
