A B-29 bomber is visiting Tulsa for the Memorial Day weekend.

"Doc" is based in Wichita, but is spending the weekend at the Tulsa Air & Space Museum.

Doc was built in 1944 at the Boeing plant in Wichita, Kansas. It is now owned by Doc's Friends, Inc., a non-profit group that manages the airplane and takes it to airshows and museums around the U.S.

Doc is one of only two B-29s in flying condition in the world. The other is Fifi, which is owned by the Commemorative Air Force.
