Saw that documentary when it originally aired some years ago. Very good doc...shame the B-29 went up in flames.

During the opening monologue about the B-29, something jumped out as me as just wrong.

"The pennicle of the B-29's service came when the Enola Gay dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and ended the war."

Hello...Bocks Car dropped the bomb on Nagisaki...and only after that bomb did Japan surrender and the war in the Pacific come to an end.

I saw that doc too, was a tragic story. All that effort, one chap died and then to loose it to a fire. Such a shame.
