Background Story:
-------------------------
Built at Renton factory in Washington, a B-29A was given the serial number of 44-62070 and was delivered to the United States Army Air Force in Kansas during 1945. She was modified to a TB-29A, and served as an administrative aircraft before being placed into "desert storage". It was returned to active duty in 1953 and retired in 1958. She then was placed at a United States Naval Weapons Center in California as a group of 35 other B-29s. The Confederate Air Force registered her as a civilian aircraft in 1971 and now flies tours and sits in museums.

Big thanks to all of these creators for posting their work for us to use!

(If you have downloaded this and you see your microcontroller in the creation, just tell me and I'll add you to the list here!)

Notes:
-------------------------
- She isn’t the best performing in Multiplayer for obvious reasons, so keep that in mind if you want to do a group flight
- It is manageable to fly with one crew member (being yourself) but it is a lot more fun and easier to fly with at least 3 (Engineer/Copilot, Bomber, Pilot)
- Be gentle flying her, unlike my B-17F, this one flies like… well. A fortress!
- I will be slowly updating it to make it more realistic until there is nothing I think I can do to it, and of course, I will do my best to include any thing the community recommends if I feel it will benefit the creation!


Next Update: never lol
