I wanna say the Smithsonian at Dulles, but I'm not sure.

You are correct. The Space Shuttle Enterprise is also there.

Got it in one. http://www.nasm.si.edu/research/aero/aircraft/boeing_b29.htm I believe the USAFM has a B-29, but not that one.

I still haven't made it to the new hangar, but it's high on the list for my next vacation plan. There are plenty of places where you can see an SR-71, but the Enola Gay and Shuttle Enterprise are unique attractions. Probaby some time in the fall, because who needs DC in August? (OTOH, going during a Congressional recess may reduce the chance of having your pocket picked.)

I saw the Enola Gay last time it was on display, but it wasn't whole -- they only had enough space in the building on the Mall for most of the fuselage and part of a wing.
