HEY, now that’s really cool!

There’s just no substitute for the sound of those big radial engines.

The Collings foundation brings their birds out here to Buchanan Field [CCR] once in awhile, and I’ve enjoyed climbing around in them; it’s like climbing into history itself. But that B-29 is something else, again.

Thanks for sharing!

There are now two B-29's that are flying. The other one has been in the air for a while. (FIFI) This is in addition to the reported ten airworthy B-17's and two B-24's in the US.

There are several EweToob videos on DOC - this one is sort of a historical synopsis.. History 1st and 2nd flight

There aren't many left considering how many were made during WWII. List of surviving Boeing B-29 Superfortresses

There is an annual air show south of us in Sussex, NJ and they have had a B17 land there on several occasions. Don't know how much runway a B29 would need - Sussex Airport isn't all that big (3500 foot runway).. ;-)
