Aero-News Quote of the Day

“The upcoming 2024 tour not only marks Doc’s eighth season since its restoration in 2016 but also launches a year-long tribute commemorating the 80th anniversary of when Doc was built by the Boeing Company in Wichita in 1944. The skilled workforce in Wichita – led by women known as “Rosie the Riveters” – built 1,644 B-29 aircraft during World War II. B-29 Doc is one of those iconic aircraft built in the Air Capital of the World and we are honored to continue to keep the legacy alive of those who designed, built, flew and maintained these machines to project freedom.”
