A really interesting retrospective on the development of the Boeing-29.

How the B-29 Modernized the U.S. Air Force

Doc. One of only 2 flying B-29s made a stop near me last weekend.
I've seen it before so I didn't go out but I did see it in the pattern at KDVT.

I have never had the pleasure of seeing an airworthy B-29. I am apt to take a trip to Duxford tomorrow to take a look at the US pavilion wherein there is a beautiful example of a B-29 on display.
