He will be at Oshkosh:
Quote:
A once-in-a-lifetime "bucket list" package will be made available for auction on Thursday, July 26 at EAA's Gathering of Eagles, the annual gala that draws more than 1,000 people and raises funds for EAA's youth programs that help grow participation in aviation. The winning bidders will fly in the B-29 on Friday, July 27, with Dutch Van Kirk, the B-29 Enola Gay navigator that flew the first atomic bomb mission over Japan in 1945, and with the CAF's B-25 with Doolittle Raider Dick Cole in the cockpit.

When someone in the crowd asked Dutch what they called the turn made by the Enola Gay after the bomb was dropped...
