Thanks for posting --- those crews went through hell if they crashed in Japan for any reason and they still had it rough in China if they managed to get that far with the fuel they had on board. A very daring raid for the time.

Wow, I loved these! I'd love to hear the roar of several of those babies flying overhead. I wonder how many people are left alive to remember the sound of fleets of those awesome piston-engine craft fly over.

If anyone is interested, Fifi - the only flying B-29 will be in Lexington Kentucky soon. . . AND offering rides! The ads don't list a price, though.

Silverhawk! Thanks for the great link - I love pix of old aircraft - I remember when I was a boy seeing squadrons of fighters flying over Palmyra, NJ, during the early 40's.
