- 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.
My dad was a KB-29 mechanic in England at Sculthorpe RAF in 54-57
Beautiful... Especially on this Veteran's Day 2019
Thanks for posting, fly on DOC.......
This is a national treasure..the new administration will be more likely to take an interest in such things..
I have a maintenance kit with documentation from 1944 for this plane!!!
Is Charles Tilghman any relation to Old West marshal Bill Tilghman? Great to see "Doc" flying again!
