Terre Haute Added To B-29 Doc Flight Experience Tour in September

Doc Is Starting To Get Around!

The B-29 Doc Flight Experience Tour will land in Terre Haute, IN, for B-29 Doc Flight Experience rides Sept. 26 and 27, 2020.

Doc will arrive at Terre Haute Airport Saturday, September 26, and will be available for warbird rides Saturday evening, Sept. 26 and Sunday morning, Sept 27. The tour stop in Terre Haute will be hosted by Hoosier Aviation (581 S Airport St, Terre Haute, IN 47803).

The flight schedule for the B-29 Doc Flight Experience rides will be 5 p.m. and 6:30 p.m., Sept. 26 and 9 a.m. and 11 a.m., Sept. 27.

Doc’s Friends, Inc., is taking all reasonable precautions to protect the B-29 Doc crew as well as passengers in the fight against the spread of COVID-19. All B-29 Doc Flight Experience passengers will be required to wear a mask (one will be provided to each passenger) during the flight. Additionally, the aircraft and all contact surfaces inside the aircraft will be sanitized/disinfected prior to each flight.

Doc is a B-29 Superfortress and one of 1,644 manufactured in Wichita during World War II. Over the past 2 decades, hundreds of volunteers worked on Doc and the restoration project. Skilled workers and retirees from Wichita’s aviation industry, veterans, active duty military and others wanting to honor those who served, have spent tens of thousands of hours on Doc’s restoration.
