A 2nd B-29 "DOC" almost ready to take to the air

[Heavens Eagle]

I just found this monday night. There is a B-29 that was rescued from the Mohave desert in 2000 that is ready to receive it's FAA flight worthiness inspection. The final balancing and truing of the propellers was finished May 7th 2016.

The web site is located here at B-29 Doc.

There are a number of videos on this plane
