Is there anyone out there who used to fly B29s or Stratocruisers?
I've often wondered about old film I've seen of B29s and Stratocruisers landing, believe it or not, nosewheel FIRST. It looked to me to be a deliberate landing technique, not just bad piloting. It was in too many films of too many different ones to be coincidence.
Are there any B29 or Stratocruiser pilots out there..? |

Denberg, the B-29 and the Stratocruisers had some interchangeable parts, but were entirely different aircraft, with different flight envelopes. I do not know of ANY aircraft that should touch down nose gear first.
