Yeah, I have done the 8th AF Museum a couple of times. Will plan to go again. I have seen the B-17, B-24, and B-29. My grandson is in college now, but I have a picture of him in the pilot seat of the B-29 when he was about 2 1/2 yrs old. I hope he will treasure that when he is older.

Because the B-29 was pressurized, one would get back to the rear of the aircraft via a small tube through the bomb bay. Of course, no waist gunners on the 29.

I am in awe of what it took to win that war.
