B-29 Doc Has to Reschedule Wichita Flights

"...Our Team Has Been Impacted By Unforeseen And Unplanned Delays"

The scheduled ride flights announced in Wichita, KS, for March 8 and 10 at the B-29 Doc Hangar, Education and Visitors Center have been canceled and will be rescheduled at a later date.

“During our planned and scheduled annual winter maintenance season, our team has been impacted by unforeseen and unplanned delays that ultimately led to the decision to make a change to our ride flight schedule in Wichita on March 8 and 10,” said Josh Wells, B-29 Doc executive director. 

“We are committed to the safe operation of Doc and that means taking time to wrap up our planned maintenance period and allow for ample operational check flights and flight crew training.”

Meanwhile, the B-29 Doc and WSU Tech Pull a Plane event will continue and be held as scheduled on March 9 at the B-29 Doc Hangar, Education and Visitors Center, and Doc will be ready for the event. Pull a Plane is a joint fundraising event between Doc’s Friends and WSU Tech Foundation to provide funding for aviation and tech-related scholarships for WSU Tech students, as well as funds to keep Doc’s mission moving forward.
