Dutchy Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 Hello, A few questions about the B-29 Enola Gay. I surfed on the internet, but I can't find good photo's about that plane. And I wanna know where I can find information about the crew. If they live or what they do now. Find only about Paul Tibbets and I know that a crewmember died this year. Thanks for helping. Greetings Dutchy

Dutchy Posted June 11, 2003 Author Posted June 11, 2003 Thanks allready. Hopely you find Enola Gay in Dayton. Few years ago I was in Dayton Ohio. And I saw there the Bock's Car. The plane that bombed Nagasaki. Salute Dutchy

CowboyTodd41 Posted June 11, 2003 Posted June 11, 2003 Ya, actually living in Kansas City I see the B-2's quite often flying over my house. Actually the squadron commander of the 509th bomb wing who fly the B-2's is Tibbets' Grandson.
