You sit on your porch and a B-29 flies over.

I think I saw it yesterday.

Im waiting on Top Gun 2 myself..... Cant wait to hear those jet engines with a little music mixed in in stereo....Cool Plane...

Impressive

That's awesome right there. Where was this at?

Saw it this morning as well. Didn't dawn on me at the time but that is what I saw

It’s flying out of Meridianville. My dad was a crew chief on them. Loved the stories he used to tell about flying on them.

Was getting in the car about an hour and saw the b-24 liberator flying over.

Keep your eyes peeled around Montgomery, there's a lift package down of MV-22's---obviously near and dear to my heart.

I think they were having a big to do in Huntsville area. Old planes and even a P51 Mustang.

We had a "flyover" today too. Lots of abnormal activity lately.

A google search says there's only two flying now. They are Doc and FiFi.

My grandfather was part of a B-29 crew. They flew “Hump” missions out of India before getting moved to the Tinian islands. They flew enough missions to wear out one plane and get assigned to another. They were shot down at the end of the war but he survived. I have old photos of him with the crew and one of his planes that he sent home to my grandmother. From those photos I used the tail numbers to obtain the flight service records of his planes. His planes names were Fu-Kem-Al and Fu-Kem-Al-Tu.

I saw it Saturday morning. It was very cool to say the least.

That is almost to cool to be true

You can get flight service records on most of the old decommissioned aircraft if you have a tail number. You won’t get a list of missions or anything like that but you can get records of maintenance and when it was put in service and when it came out. For instance I found where their first plane was retired as “war weary” and on what date. I joined a B29 forum and the guys on there told me how to request those records from Maxwell. It’s pretty cool looking through that stuff. The guys on the forum also knew about my grandfather’s plane and gave me some more info. That first plane flew 30 hump missions which was incredible.

I used to see them daily, my father was the vice president for the Confederate Airforce in Midland Tx. I was a 15 year old kid working the in warehouse pulling parts. Nothing like being told to go get the part ready FIFI is fling in at 2 and needs it. Got to ride in several of the WWII planes. It was a great time.

That's pretty cool Driveby. My uncle was a maintenance crew chief (or whatever they are actually called) on B-52s at Elgin for about 10 years until he retired. Years later I had the opportunity to make a few tow bars for them.
