Doc is coming to Statesville next week

[Gardner]

The B-29 Doc will be in Statesville next week. April 30-May 2

I don't think a heads up has been posed on CFF so here it is.

Doc @ Statesville

Years ago I had the opportunity to climb up into the cockpit of Fifi when it was in Raleigh. Amazing aircraft. If you have never seen a B29 up close, take the time to go see this.

When is it going to be airborne/in-route/landing?

Would be fun to track it on one of those apps, flightradar24, adsbexchange, or something. Anyone have any info?

The schedule says 2 flights a day, 5:30 and 6:30p + Thur 9a & 11 am

So the flights are fairly short it appears.

Route, no idea

Does anyone know if you can go to watch takeoffs and landings if you haven't paid for the flight? I don't mind dropping the $10 for the tour fee to do so.

Bring your climbing shoes, I'm sure they won't care if you hang out on the runway
