Another flying B-29

Post by JohnDillworth »

Only the 2nd one as far as I know. I wonder if these are the original engines or they replaced them with non standard ones like FiFi? Looking forward to seeing this on the air show circuit I hope http://www.b-29doc.com/

FiFi engines are non-turbocharged. I have seen the plane and did the tour of it on the ground. Has a NORDEN bombsight that was donated by Paul Tibbits himself. See the aircraft as soon as you can it is great time!

Had the pleasure 2 years ago. She flies over my house when she is at the Jones Beach Air show. I did get to walk through, flights were going for about $800. I was severely tempted. maybe this year

I saw her at DuPage County Airport two years ago, and the fee to fly in the nose was $1900; worth every penny, but I could not afford it.
