Mal,

    There is only ONE B-29 that is still considered airworthy (out of
nearly 4,000 B-29's built).
The one airworthy B-29 "Fifi"  is in need of an engine overhaul.

 I have seen the Enola Gay at the Air and Space Museum's Steven F.
Udvar-Hazy Center at Dulles Airport outside of Washington, D.C.

 I have a photo of the Enola Gay signed by Col. Tibbets as well.
