I saw Fifi when they flew her into Oshkosh a few years back. According to EAA another group is resurrecting another B-29 SN 44-69972 named "Doc" in Wichita Kansas, many volunteers are Boeing or former Boeing employees.

It is possible some young Air Force pilots are flying the same airplane their Grandpa did in the Viet Nam era.
