More than 50 years since two B-29 Superfortresses shared the same airspace, the Commemorative Air Force’s “FIFI” and the recently restored “Doc” flew together over Oshkosh at this year’s EAA AirVenture show. These are the only two airworthy B-29s remaining, and while FIFI has been flying since the 1970s, Doc took to the skies only last July after a 17-year restoration.
