B-29 Doc to Launch 2023 Tour Season in March

Historic Treasure Returns to American Skies

The B-29 Doc History Restored Tour will open the 2023 season with two stops in Arkansas. The 10-day tour will land in Fayetteville, AR and Texarkana, AR beginning March 16 through March 26.

Both stops on the tour will include B-29 Doc Flight Experience rides, along with ground and cockpit tours of B-29 Doc, one of only two B-29 Superfortresses still airworthy and flying today.

“We’re excited to kickoff Doc’s seventh tour season in March in two cities that are known for their outstanding warbird hospitality,” said Josh Wells, B-29 Doc executive director. “The B-29 Doc History Restored Tour is committed to honoring the men and women who served our nation during World War II and giving people an up-close and personal experience with a B-29 Superfortress. Our mission is to ensure B-29 Doc and other warbirds keep history alive for generations to come.”

  • March 16-19: Fayetteville, AR (Arkansas Air and Military Museum; Drake Field)
  • March 22-26: Texarkana, AR (Texarkana Regional Airport)

The remaining tour schedule for Doc in 2023 will be released soon.
