The video was taken with a GoPro Hero 3 which was new to me so my apologies; when looking out the windscreen you get serious glare, it does clear up at some points.

More flight time on "FIFI" a B-29 Superfortress which until very recently was the only flying example of that great bomber. It was developed very late in the war so it's impact on the war overall was minimal but it was a technological marvel nonetheless.

During the flight our altitude was between 2,500 and 3,000 feet, I didn't catch the airspeed but I would guess somewhere around 200mph.
