A really long time ago, (I was 5 at the time) I took a tour in the only in the only flying B-29 in the world, "FIFI". I can't really remember it that well, but I do remember being amazed by the complex structure and amazing design the bomber had. Then a quite a few years later, "Doc" became the second flying B-29 in the world, and yesterday, I finally got to take a tour in it when it came to Planes of Fame (The museum I'm a part of). For $10, I got to take a tour inside it and it was incredible! I started having memories of when I got to take a tour of FIFI all those years ago.
So now I can say I've been inside both flying B-29's in the world :D
Also I got to see the museums Corsair take off which was cool
@BoganBoganTheMan I have pics on Beluga's discord, but I have no idea how to get them on to SimplePlanes.com
That’s really cool! I thought Joe’s was the only one. Never knew that!@BlackhattAircraft
That’s a shame, luckily I know there’s a few Ov-1’s flying rn @Cobrahuey
No, I just like his performance. I never got to see him though, which makes me really sad :(@BlackhattAircraft
Oh that’s so sad. I had no idea, are you apart of Mohawk air shows? @Cobrahuey
He was the owner of Mohawk Airshows.@BlackhattAircraft
No, what is it? @Cobrahuey
You know about the Dr. Massesa’s crash right?@BlackhattAircraft
I know I’ve seen 1 Ov-1, but I may have seen 2 at one point @Cobrahuey
I know that all of them were given to museums, and then the museums couldn’t pay for them so they handed they to pilots. I have only seen one Mohawk, which is at McMinnville, Oregon @BlackhattAircraft
Alright, idk how many are even left in the world @Cobrahuey
The B-24 I saw had an American Flag on the nose of it. It flew over the Airport once, but that’s all I saw of it. And of course I’ve been inside WitchCraft. And if you ever hear news about an Ov-1 for sale, tell me!@BlackhattAircraft
Cool! I hope I get to see a Catalina some day! I’ve been fortunate to see a B-24 (most definitely the same one as you) fly over my house a few times. @Cobrahuey Also nice OV-1 picture, the air museum I work is restoring one to flight!
I know this comment is very late. I took a tour inside Doc at Oshkosh 2019. I also saw FIFI parked at Appleton Airport. There was a T-6, B-24, and a Catalina.
@SubXTribe Thanks

To do that, upload the pic to Discord, grab it's link and type the thing above.
@BlackhattAircraft There is a option to copy an image link in the discord
@JamesBleriot I have a video of a coursair taking off on the same day I saw Doc
I posted a vid the other day of a B-25 takeoff. Didn’t realize the quality was so poor when I posted it so I apologize in advance if you watch it. @BlackhattAircraft
@JamesBleriot cool
I was in Worcester the other day to see the Wings of Freedom tour. @BlackhattAircraft
I’ve been in fife as well a few years back
@BlackhattAircraft that's cool, I've never been to Planes of Fame, but I've always wanted to.
The B-25 I went in was in full flying condition, it was at some airport near St. Louis, undergoing refueling and some last minute cleaning for an airshow it was scheduled to be at later that day, the guys working on it let me and a group of people (we were on an airport tour for an aviation camp) climb inside and look around, it was very epic.
@belugasub I know how to do it! I don't know how to get it from my phone onto the site though!
