When the CAF acquired "Fifi" in back in the 70's, an air traffic controller
asked for aircraft type as it approached Harlingen, Texas. The pilot
responded, "Bravo Two-Niner, over." Again he asked. Again, "Bravo
two-niner, B-29, over." The stunned controller later said, "That was the
first time I worked a B-29 in thirty years."
