Gents, my cousin is a writer for CNN in DC and he just contributed to the article below. He's been writing a number of pieces on aircrafts lately but this was by far the best piece I've seen him do to date... He actually got to ride in one of the WWII bombers. Badass.

The news last night had some footage of many of the planes that did the DC flyover. It was cool to see them flying. I wish they didn't talk over it so much, I wanted to really hear them. I noticed that Fifi, the only flying B29 left, was in the mix. I've got some footage of that B29 flying at a Van Nuys airshow from the early 90's. One day I have to find it and digitize it. Your cousin was lucky to be able to fly along in the B25.
