WORLD’S ONLY FLYING B-29 SUPERFORTRESS, FIFI, Returns to EASTERN U.S. accompanied by a B-24 and P-51
Once-In-A-Lifetime flight opportunities available.
(Addison,
Tex., May 5, 2012) The Commemorative Air Force’s famous Boeing B-29
Superfortress bomber, FIFI -- the only remaining flying example of the
aircraft in the world --- will return to the eastern U.S. for a four
week tour.
The B-29 will be joined by an equally rare B-24 Liberator, Diamond Lil, and an actual combat veteran P-51 Mustang of the Cavanaugh Flight Museum, The Brat III. The tour kicks off in mid-May and runs through mid-June.
All
three aircraft are fully restored to their historic wartime
configuration. The events are open to the public and will allow
attendees to get up close to these famous World War II aircraft. When
the aircraft are not in motion, cockpit tours of the bombers will be
available. There will be opportunities for attendees to purchase a ride
in one or all three aircraft at all of the stops except Andrews AFB and
Hamilton, Ontario. Ride reservations are recommended. Visit
www.RideB29.com for more information about the tour schedule and to make
ride reservations.
The stops include:
· May 18 – 20 Lexington, Ky. at the Aviation Museum of Kentucky (B-29 and P-51 only)
· May 18 – 20 Andrews AFB Open House and Airshow, Washington, D.C. (B-24 only)
· May 22 – 23 Baltimore, Md. at Martin State Airport
· May 25 – 30 Charlotte, N.C. at the Carolinas Aviation Museum
· June 1 – 3 Reading, Pa. at the Mid Atlantic Air Museum’s “World War II Days” Airshow
· June 8 – 10 Windsor Locks, Conn. at the New England Air Museum
· June 11 – 13 Buffalo, N.Y. Buffalo Niagara International Airport
· June 14 – 17 Hamilton, Ontario, Canada at the Canadian Warplane Heritage Airshow
· June 30 Dallas, Tex. at the Cavanaugh Flight Museum
The
mission of the Commemorative Air Force is to honor the men and women
who built, maintained and flew in these airplanes during World War II.
The organization believes that mission is best accomplished by
maintaining the airplanes in flying condition; taking the airplanes to
the people allowing them to experience the sight and sound of the
aircraft in flight.
About the CAF’s B-29 Superfortress, FIFI:
The
Boeing B-29 “Superfortress,” which was first flown in 1942 and began
active service in 1944, is perhaps best known as the aircraft from which
the first atomic bomb was dropped. It was designed as a replacement for
the older B-17s and B-24s, with longer range and greater bomb loads.
The B-29 was also used in the Korean War in the early 1950s and was a
staple of the U.S. Air Force until the late 1950s.
FIFI
was acquired by the CAF in the early 1970s when a group of CAF members
found her at the U.S. Navy Proving Ground at China Lake, California
where she was being used as a missile target. The airplane was rescued
and restored and flew for over thirty years until 2006 when the chief
pilot made the decision to ground her pending a complete power plant
re-fit. What followed was an extensive four year restoration that
included replacing all four engines with new custom built hybrid
engines. FIFI returned to the sky in 2010 and since that time has
traveled coast to coast attracting large crowds at every tour stop.
Learn more about FIFI and her tour schedule at www.CAFB29B24.org.
About the CAF’s B-24A Liberator:
This
aircraft, built in May 1941, is the 25th B-24 produced by Consolidated
Aircraft at their San Diego facility. On a training flight from Eagles
Nest Airport, N.M., prior to its delivery to England, AM-927 experienced
a landing accident. The damage was major enough that the aircraft had
to be returned to San Diego for repairs. As a result of the accident,
she was converted to a personnel and cargo carrier. During the war this
B-24 flew scheduled runs between San Diego, Fort Worth, New York, and
Washington D.C. She also carried various American and foreign
dignitaries within the U.S. In 1969 the aircraft was purchased by the
CAF and, in 1971, she was painted in the colors and markings of the 98th
Bomb Group, Pyramiders of the 9th Air Force in North Africa, and was
named Diamond Lil.
About the Commemorative Air Force:
Collecting,
restoring and flying vintage historical aircraft for more than half a
century, the Commemorative Air Force ranks as one of the largest private
air forces in the world. The CAF is dedicated to Honoring American
Military Aviation through flight, exhibition and remembrance. A
non-profit educational association, the CAF has more than 8,000 members
and a fleet of 156 airplanes distributed throughout the country to 74
units located in 27 states for care and operation. For more information,
visit www.commemorativeairforce.org.
About the Cavanaugh Flight Museum P-51D Mustang, The Brat III
The
museum's P-51D was manufactured in 1944 and shipped to England. It was
assigned to the 9th Air Force, 370th Fighter Group, 401st Fighter
Squadron, and flown by Lt. Hjalmar Johnsen. In June 1947 it was sold to
the Swedish Air Force and served as Flygyapnet (FV) Serial No. 26115
based at F-4, Ostersund. Between 1952 and 1953 it was sold to the
Dominican Republic and served as Fuerza Aerea Dominica Serial No. 1918
until 1984 when it was retired from active service. Following the
restoration that was completed in 2011, the plane was again painted in
the markings of Lt. Hjalmar Johnsen.
About the Cavanaugh Flight Museum
The
Cavanaugh Flight Museum opened in October 1993, the brainchild of its
founder, entrepreneur Jim Cavanaugh. Cavanaugh placed his growing
collection of historic aircraft in the new museum. The Cavanaugh Flight
Museum is devoted to promoting aviation studies and to perpetuating
America's aviation heritage; the museum fulfills its mission by
restoring, operating, maintaining and displaying
historically-significant, vintage aircraft, and by collecting materials
related to the history of aviation. For more information, visit

CAREER OF AVIATION ICON BOB HOOVER TO BE SALUTED DURING EAA AIRVENTURE 2011 #OSH11
Aircraft flown by Hoover to be featured during air show on Tuesday, July 26
Hoover, who served as the official starter at the Reno National Championship Air Races for three decades, began working for North American Aviation in 1950, where he tested and demonstrated the company’s civil and military aircraft. When the company merged with Rockwell International in 1968, he began demonstrating the strength of the Shrike Commander twin-engine business aircraft, putting it through rolls, loops, and other maneuvers usually not associated with executive aircraft.
The Shrike Commander routine was renowned for its energy management as Hoover performed aerobatics with the engines stopped. As part of the finale, he shut down both engines, then executed a loop and an eight-point hesitation slow roll as he headed back to the runway, where he touched down on one tire, then the other, during landing. Hoover later added to his legend by pouring a cup of tea without it spilling while performing a slow barrel roll, video of which has been widely distributed among aviation enthusiasts.
