Did you know that, of 3,900 B-29 Superfortress bombers built during WW-II, only one is still in flying condition? The B-29 has been called the weapon which won the war in the Pacific. It was the only bomber we had which could fly 3,700 to 4,500 miles carrying up to 20,000 pounds of bombs.
Believe it or not 🙂 the 2,200 horsepower Wright Double Cyclone engines on the B-29 were maintenance headaches when they were new. Sixty years has not improved them and Fifi now needs four new ones. If you have a couple of spare dollars, you can help Keep Fifi Flying.
