Sometime after midnight on 14 February 1950, a Convair B-36B, United States Air Force Serial Number 44-92075 assigned to the US 7th Bombardment Wing, Heavy at Carswell Air Force Base in Texas, crashed in northwestern British Columbia on Mount Kologet after jettisoning a Mark 4 nuclear bomb. This was the first such nuclear weapon loss in history. The B-36B had been en route from Eielson Air Force Base near Fairbanks, Alaska to Carswell AFB, more than 3,000 miles southeast, on a mission that included a simulated nuclear attack on San Francisco.

(en) 1950年ブリティッシュコロンビアB-36爆撃機墜落事故は、1950年2月13日、アラスカ州からテキサス州に向けて飛行していたアメリカ空軍の戦略爆撃機B-36が、カナダ・ブリティッシュコロンビア州で墜落した航空事故である。同機は、秘密の核攻撃模擬訓練の任務を帯びて、鉛・ウラン・トリニトロトルエンを搭載した核爆弾「マーク4」を積載、移送していたが、飛行開始数時間後にエンジン火災が発生し、乗員17人はパラシュートで脱出した。その際上空約2400mで核爆弾を投棄、現在もその行方はわかっていない。この核爆弾には起爆に必要なプルトニウムが組み込まれておらず、核爆発のおそれはないとされる。事故機の残骸は、脱出地点から約300㎞北東のコロジェット山（Mount Kologet）中で発見された。乗員のうち生還したのは12人で、消息を絶った5人のうち一人は事故機の残骸から遺体となって発見された。残る4人は早く降下した結果、海上に着水して低体温症で死亡したと推測された。 (ja) Beim Absturz einer B-36 in British Columbia am 13.
