  • B-29 Superfortress

High over the Alabama River, a Superfortress wings home from a training mission, to its base at this AAF Training Command B-29 Transition School. Here at Maxwell Field airplane commanders, pilots and flight engineers get their training as three-man teams. Each trio spends about three weeks in ground school and five weeks in the air learning as a unit to handle the huge craft. Instructor teams consisting of one pilot instructor and one flight engineer instructor, take four student trios through the entire course.
