Pilot talks about taking the controls of "Doc"

Pilot Charles Tilghman had the honor of being the first to pilot the B-29 "Doc" after it made its return to flight after a 16-year restoration process in Wichita. (Video by Travis Heying and Jaime Green/The Wichita Eagle)

What a privilege, to have flown both Fifi and Doc. Great pilot!

To me it’s a wonder how they so exquisitely restored this icon of freedom. 😯

Good interview. My dad was a WB-29 mechanic in Alaska during the Korea war.

This is a national treasure..the new administration will be more likely to take an interest in such things..

Is Charles Tilghman any relation to Old West marshal Bill Tilghman? Great to see "Doc" flying again!
