😊🤔👌B29～VeryGood🎉

Un avión hermoso...

Doc was at Allentown PA the weekend of May 11th and came back on the the 20 & 21st for an encore after the Dover show on it's way to Cincinnati so it's was well received here...

great stuff, Tom

Tremendo Avión el B29. Mi favorito. Lastima que en este vídeo no se ve casi nada.

Super neat.

FakingB29！fromJapan！

Wunderschön😊Danke für Ihr Video❤🗽🤙🏻

Incredible flight, thanks for taking me along. :o)

Have they ever flew doc over the China lake where it was found?

Absolutely fantastic. What a ride the kid had. Bet he remembers that for the rest of his life. Wouldn’t be easy to sit there with that view beneath your feet.

Now try flying it flat and slow for ten minutes to drop the bombs, with flack all around. Lol

My granddad was a B29 mechanic. I would love to see if he was working on one still flying

Bet the kid sleep for a month after rising in a B-29 Super Fortress. He’ll be a fly boy when he graduates from high school

Thanks for this video….Amazing to experience

これ上昇させるの重そう

Greetings from middle Europe....very nice video. So nice to view big plane...!!! thank you!

Always a great looking plane and always modern looking

Thank you so much from a CAF life member in Amsterdam. Great video!

Very cool, great job on the restoration!!!

I built the Enola Gay when I was 9 years old.Revell model.50 years ago. Wished I still had it.😢 On Christmas day I stuffed her with fireworks and blew her up.Some battle I was re- enacting.Almost burning the attic down .Things one did 😢as a child.

I've gotta try and get this done for my dad to ride. My grandfather was either the engineer or the radio operator in one of those planes

in 1980 i was a member of the Carolinas Wing Confederate Air Force i was lucky enough to ride in upper gunner position on B-29 FiFi as we flew in formation with B24 Diamond Lil from Charlotte NC to Columbia SC

Excellent video

Incredible

The first time that I was on Doc was in the summer of 1977 on Baker Range at China Lake where I was working. I crawled through Doc and took ~ 5 photographs that were forwarded to the CAF. The second time that I was on Doc was on July 9, 2023 (46 years later). I spent ~30 minutes in the Bombadier’s seat while flying over Wichita. I got closure on a big event in my life. Thank you so much to those that restored this aircraft and to those that arranged for me to fly on Doc almost a half century later!

good job.

Great video. To put it in perspective imagine each of those crew seats filled with a 20 or 21 year old man going on a mission. Enemy aircraft coming up to shoot you down. Flak very think close to target but you can't turn back or even turn away. What brave men those were. Thank God we had them back then.

Just came from your B29 flight video. I can see we share similar tastes😀 I made the long drive from Boston to a Walmart parking lot in Madisonville Tennessee to watch this eclipse. Was a great experience that i had to wait until my 50s to see. There’s a total eclipse next year that’s closer to home for me in April I believe? Actually, need to start planning out where I’m going to be for that one before the media starts amping it up and hotel rooms become scarce.

Wow! That was a really great video! Thanks so much for making and sharing and thanks for not adding any music as well! You’re really lucky to have been ably to fly in a B29, not many airworthy examples out there. Definitely a bucket list experience!!!

amazed at how much input the pilot has to put in the controls and how slowly the airplane was to react. What an amazing airplane though!

What an incredible experience, thanks so much for posting! I've long had a soft spot for the B-29, partially because my Great-Uncle was a US Army infantryman during the Korean War. It's great to see one of the planes that helped give him air support, I'm so glad the Superforts are starting to be recognized more for their role in the early days of SAC, not just their part in ending World War II.

wow, Boeing B-29 Superfortress

Just Imagine, what it was like for Young American Men to take off in One of These Big Beautiful Girls from The Island of Quam on their way to Bomb Japan!, Not knowing each time, Whether they would make it back Alive!!!, Such Bravery and Sacrifice!!!, Thank You To The Greatest Generation from The Days of World War 2, You Saved The World from Tierney!!!!, and Thanks to All of America's Service Men & Women, Past and Present!!!!, We wouldn't be Here Today, and Free to Live Our Lives Without You!!!!

I already thought that they flew to bomb Japan again .. The route is known, the crew flew off.

What a lucky boy!!!

My grandfather was a navigator in a B29 in 1951-52 during the Korean War. 34 B29s were lost during the Korean War. He just died last year in 2022 at the age of 93. He narrowly missed fighting in ww2 as he was just a few years too young. He was 16 when WW2 ended, born in 1929. I have his field bag consisting of a small tent, a sleeping bag, a water canteen, and a pocket knife. Never been washed and still has some Korean dirt on it. It is so brittle, the fabric is starting to fall apart.

B-29 誇らしいですか ? 原爆投下で、長崎で7万9千人 広島で14万人いずれも非戦闘員 バイデンは言ぃました、あいっは 殺人者だと、本当の殺人者は誰ですか、

That was awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Same exact seat I rode in on Doc... I think it's the best seat in the house, especially if you want to see ALL the cockpit action, and still have great access to windows, etc.

That’s awesome! Thank you for sharing!

Thanks for filming your ride in this spectacular B-29.

Nice video, though I got to say I absolutely hate the CMOS rolling shutter effect of the strobed props. Next time, it would be great to use a real video camera with a conventional shutter that shows the props as a blur, just as the human eye perceives them. Back in the early '80s I was a young HP sales rep that had China Lake (CA) as part of my territory. One Friday afternoon I stopped by the Airfield and saw the abandoned B-29s including Doc, left there to rot at the end of the runway decades earlier. I had a chance to climb through Doc, and was sad to see how deteriorated the interior was. These guys have done a remarkable job of bringing the plane back to life.

Quite a ride. Great video. Thanks.

My first flight was in a converted C47 to a passanger plane (West Coast Airways from KHQM) about 1957. I fell in love with WW2 era aircraft then and suspect this young boy is starting a similar romance of his own after this flight.

Oh, poor boy

Great video. The boy in the bombardier seat has a great story to tell at school.

Great Vid, how long was the flight?? Going on a Lancaster flight in 2 weeks and haven't slept much waiting for the day
