I had the amazing opportunity to catch a ride in "DOC" one of only two B-29 Bombers flying today. This is a video of the approach and landing into Wichita, Kansas. DOC is based there and offers tours and rides. Pleaes check out his website to find out how you can become part of DOC's incredible story.

Now about the B-29 From wikipedia:
The Boeing B-29 Superfortress is a retired American four-engined propeller-driven heavy bomber, designed by Boeing and flown primarily by the United States during World War II and the Korean War. Named in allusion to its predecessor, the Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress, the Superfortress was designed for high-altitude strategic bombing, but also excelled in low-altitude night incendiary bombing, and in dropping naval mines to blockade Japan. Silverplate B-29s dropped the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the only aircraft ever to drop nuclear weapons in combat.

One of the largest aircraft of World War II, the B-29 was designed with state-of-the-art technology, which included a pressurized cabin, dual-wheeled tricycle landing gear, and an analog computer-controlled fire-control system that allowed one gunner and a fire-control officer to direct four remote machine gun turrets.
The B-29 Superfortress was a WW2 era bomber that flew in the Pacific campaigns of World War II. The most notable mission of the B-29 was when "Enola Gay" dropped the first ever Atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan. Although the bomb created massive destruction and loss of life, it and the second one on Nagasaki, led to a quick end to the war with the Japanese surrender. This ultimately saved more lives on both sides.

This video is not to glamorize or glorify war, but to showcase the massive and amazing aircraft that was ahead of its time in many ways.
