Aviation enthusiasts; The 2nd airworthy B-29 - "Doc" arrives at Oshkosh (pics and vids) [View all]

Doc, built in 1944, was one of 2,766 B-29s built at Boeing. This aircraft arrived in Wichita in 2000 in pieces on flatbed trucks, and volunteers spent more than a decade lovingly restoring the aircraft to flyable condition. It flew for the first time in July 2016.
