Great filming! It just popped up! I saw our only flying Lancaster today through Manchester Airport and it just captures people when they go by. I’m sure these old warriors do the same over in the US. Only seen a B29 in a museum so incredibly impressive to see this. Thank you for posting! Paul
B-25 Mitchell, "Maid in the Shade", and the B-17, Sentimental Journey" are both based about 15 minutes from my place in Mesa, AZ. Neighbors laugh at me almost breaking my neck every time we hear a radial engine.... like every day!!
Amazing footage. This really makes you appreciate just complex these aircraft are, and the skill level of the crew. The men that flew these in combat during both World War II and Korea were simply incredible (it's unfortunate how few today talk about the VITAL role the B-29 played in the 1950-53 Korean War, without their sheer power to widely take out the North Korean and Chinese supply lines, South Korea and the UN forces could have been overrun, some generals even said their contribution literally helped turn the tide of the conflict).
I live on the final of Wiley Post Airport and when it was there it go past our house and it was cool and you could hear it getting near my house. To the pilots thanks your seats when I did a tour and the CAF too.
Hi Jenna, nice video. This is a great show and I have been here many times. I also had a ride in Fifi and sat in that same spot you did years ago. You may have to fast forward the video a little, but it's in "B 29 Fifi A Personal History" I couldn't have had a better spot to shoot from.
Great video! Question: Near the end of your video, at the 1:18:03 mark, do you know what the plane is with the red vertical tail fin, in the center of the view, in the background? It looks like quite a large plane.
NICE HD POV paljon kiitoksia = mucho gracias. This would not have been possible @ the level of realism 25 yrs ago. Amazing era, to the good & the bad. Gather DOC is even more ship shape inside. How about a 3rd one ...
At 1.12 59 that circle must have been an under gunner terret at some time I beleive youve been a lucky lady to be able to fly in this such air craft ,thank you for sharing this ,wish i was holding your camera
Thank you. They do start them while they are on the flight line to make sure they are working OK and get the plane moving. And then when they are on the taxiways, they shut them off as they could hit the lights.
No tunnel? How are you going to kick out any bombs that failed to drop? Kadena hot and humid, the Yalu at altitude frozen. Don’t wear a chute, if any silk showed you might get sucked out, just hang on. Gloves, and silk glove liners. Leave over mitts at seat. Amazing no one thought of adding anchor points, wearing a harness, and clipping on with a carabiner. Yes, the bombardiers did this.
@billsmith5109 NICE TOUCH. U should write Supe fiction. Got the knack. Not that many air novels came out of Korea. Dunno if any on Supes even exist = make yrself a pioneer, a trailblazer. A couple of nite-Invader paperbacks I own, but havent read em in 2 decades. Suggest use the Chester Marshall oral hist collection 4 vols. as side-fire support .. 4 starters paljon onnea = good luck 🇫🇮
Thank you!
Fantastic History in that warbird.
Amazing Amazing ‼️
Thank you so much 👍 ..
Thank you for watching!
What an amazing experience. Thanks for sharing. Really good camera work. Steven. BBC Scotland camera operator.

Thank you! 😊
This is the very best video of the army air corps B-29 that I've ever seen. Just FANTASTIC!
Thank you so very much for the wonderful comment!
WOW what a privilege to ride on one of these amazing historic machines.
Thanks for filming you flight in the great CAF B-29.

32:54 I didn't expect the windshield to look like that.
What a cool experience!
It’s the Millennium Falcon!

*_Thank you for taking me with you on your tour,so many scenery.😁_*
1 of 2 flying DOC the other B-29 out of Wichita KS thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching!

That is a good question. Right at the end of the video hanging on the wall? I actually do not know. I've never seen them down.
Pretty cool. You did a great job while in flight. Nice capture.
Thank you 😊

Doc is also on my list to ride in. It never gets old for sure.

I would want to ride FIFI someday
Awesome ride Jenna!! I would love to go up in one of them! Didn't you get a ride in a B-17 as well! Anyway, well done!
Hi Rodney - yes I did. I've flown on all the 'heavy' bombers from WW2 and the B-25. They are just so thrilling and full of history!
FiFi used to be stationed at CAF Midland TX it received new engines when it was here.
Thank goodness for those engines. They still run great! Thank you for watching.
@@JennaCee I enjoyed seeing “FIFI” in flight. Thank you for doing this,
Way cool. The view out the front window for the landing actually looked like it had been done by a green screen.
It's was a great view, Best seat in the plane IMHO.
I thought he said he wouldn’t start the outboard engines until he got out to the runway ? Anyway, cool vid !
Thank you. They do start them while they are on the flight line to make sure they are working OK and get the plane moving. And then when they are on the taxiways, they shut them off as they could hit the lights.
@@JennaCee thanks for the explanation. Glad you had a good time.
Very nice video. I spent the better part of 1/2 years and 150+ hours up the road about 10 miles flying gliders at Kutztown Airport flying gliders
That's familiar view then for sure Thanks for watching.
2 B28's were test flown on a mission over Germany
Never happened.

@@sulevisydanmaa9981 Poor fiction writer. Dad was lead crew bombardier of 307th.
Now thats the ride of a lifetime!! Wow what a thrill that must've been.
It was so much fun!!
@@JennaCee I can only imagine!
