The iconic B-29 Superfortress known as “DOC” will be featured at the 2025 World War II Weekend in Reading, Pennsylvania, set for June 6-8. Hosted by the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum, the event will showcase one of only two airworthy B-29s in the world.
During the weekend, visitors will have the rare opportunity to see B-29 DOC up close, explore its cockpit and interior during guided ground tours, and even experience a ride aboard the historic heavy bomber. “Honoring the legacy of the Greatest Generation and those who stepped up to defend freedom during World War II is at the heart of our mission,” said Sean Elliott, B-29 DOC Aircraft Commander. “Partnering with the Mid Atlantic Air Museum for this remarkable event allows us to share the incredible stories behind these warbirds and the people who built and flew them.”
Originally built in Wichita, Kansas, DOC is one of 1,644 B-29 bombers produced by Boeing during the war. The aircraft will participate in the airshow and be available for ride flights throughout the weekend. “We’re thrilled to welcome DOC back for its second visit—this time for a full weekend appearance with airshow flights and continuous ride operations,” said Mid Atlantic Air Museum President Russell Strine. Tickets for the B-29 DOC Flight Experience are available now at www.b29doc.com, and World War II Weekend event tickets can be purchased at maam.org/wwii.
