Gorgeous aircraft, the B2 of its day.  I hope they come up with the $7-9M they need to get it flying.

I love the fact that the plane is in the raw versus being covered up with paint like FIFI. I think it looks better that way, but, then again, I'm not one of the persons who have to buff that thing or deal with corrosion.

Now she joins FIFI as the other operational, airworthy Superfortress left in the world. Beautiful ride.

Beautiful.  Hell, STUNNING.  Is this a true flying restoration?

They still have to install the vertical. The original was missing when they originally pulled her out of the desert.

No, not without many millions of additional donations.

I got to fly FIFI last year would be super cool to have a second in flying condition.  Off to see if there is a donation page for Doc.
