This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

Aside from the fact that they have to move, I haven't seen anything either. I have a friend whose boyfriend works at Boeing. I sent her a message last week, but no response yet.

I wish I had an answer but nobody seems to know. When I was in the hangar seeing the Connie last weekend I could see they were still working on it. We had to stick close to the group that went in so I didn't get to go over by it or talk to anyone on the 29 crew. They want to try and have things ready to move out at the end of March but no idea where they're gonna go with them. Bob Bogash said he'd be fine with the Connie sitting outside for awhile. He'd prefer people get to see it. The museum isn't big on that idea though. On the north end of Boeing Field there are these big white tent looking things and I think they'd at least like to get something like that to store them in.

Is that B-29 going to a museum as a static display or is it going to fly ?

It is going on display at the MOF, static display. It is a combat vet and wearing it's actual paint scheme.

Somehow the museum just has to find cover or those birds. If I had the money I would donate enough for them to build some kind of protection for them. On the other hand its good they have been under cover for as long as they have been.
