Thankyou very much, concise and informative. There is no doubting the American industry was far ahead in technical abilities and sophisticated production than the rest of the world. Essentially all condensed in California. I was fortunate to visit my Aunties in Seattle in 1997. We obviously had to visit Boeing at Renton. Back home l went to Duxford and was able to view the B17 and B29. To think the B29 flew in 1941 (and sadly crashed on it's maiden flight, proof of how fraught test flying was) . Just to see how complex the B29 undercarriage was perfectly illistrated the phenomenal progress of the aircraft industry at that time. I'm not entirely certain the B29 's were built in California because of their complexity. I have only recently subscribed and enjoy the down to earth no frills presentation. Many thanks. Take care and stay safe.

'There is no doubting the American industry was far ahead in technical abilities and sophisticated production than the rest of the world.' I think you'll find the Germans were way ahead of everyone.

Just what was needed. Too much good history in so cal to not be remembered. Ed is up there with a big smile.

My Daughter took me here a few years ago.

Fantastic.

My brother was the pilot on The B 24 out of Fogigia Italy would love to see some info about the plane and their missons

Let’s remember the political situation in California pretty much killed aircraft manufacturing in California. Californians would benefit hugely if aircraft manufacturing could return.

I would love to visit your museum but unfortunately it's in communist california.and I will never step foot there.
