B-29 Superfortress “FIFI“ Cockpit in Flight, Approach, and Landing Loveland Ft Collins, CO 7 24 14

FIFI, The Commemorative Air Force’s B-29 Superfortress visited Loveland/Ft Collins, CO in July 2014. We had the good fortune to get a ride in the cockpit and got to watch the crew at work landing. Some additional info based on Comments: * The B-29 cockpit was the basis for the design of the Millennium Falcon in “Star Wars“. * The guy sitting at the huge control console is the Flight Engineer. He’s controlling all aircraft functions except the landing gear and the flight controls controlled by the pilot’s control column. * Everyone was belted in for take-off and landing.
