No Room In The Hangars For Doc

"Doc," the B-29 that has been lovingly restored by hundreds of volunteers over many years in Wichita, was taken outside this fall in hopes of a return to flight — but now winter is setting in, putting those flying dreams on hold, and there is no space available in the local hangars to bring the airplane indoors. Doc's Friends, the volunteer group working to restore the airplane, says the engines can't be run when the temperature goes below 50 degrees. They are worried about leaving the airplane outside and vulnerable to snow, rain, freezing rain, ice and hail, but so far they have no other option.
