Thanks! Note the Navigator's Map in the B29 is signed by Dutch Van Kirk, who was the Navigator on the Enola Gay when it dropped the bombs on Hiroshima. Dutch passed away a few years ago, but the guys from Dallas/Ft Worth where Fifi is hangered, shared that Dutch thoroughly enjoyed being in Fifi, and taking a ride to bring back some of the memories. Good stuff, to me.

My favorite would be (what else) the P-51, been awhile since I've heard a Merlin in a Mustang... but you just never forget that song..
