B-29 Super Fortress

Probably the cushiest assignment for ground crew not assigned to firefighting or EOD, since you knew those fuckers only had to make it to the end of the runway and self-immolate. A good time for all the crew chiefs and specialists to kick back and catch up on the news, reading by the firelight provided by their own aircraft. Genuinely Boeing’s best idea: an aircraft whose reliability problems 100% weren’t the problem of the people whose job was aircraft reliability!

Anyone pissing and moaning about the cost of modern combat aircraft need to understand that creating the Superfortress, the world’s first and, for awhile only, nuclear-capable bomber, cost more than the Manhattan Project. Seriously, the A-bomb set the USA back $2 billion, but the B-29 was a $3 billion endeavor. And it wasn’t off to a great start, either. Its biggest technological hurdle was its engines, which loved to catch fire. The disastrous beginnings of the B-29 were so expensively bad they are part of history lessons taught to the basic trainees of a branch that didn’t exist at the time, the US Air Force.

But there’s another lesson tucked in there: It pays to be the only guy with a devastating capability nobody else has. Because for all the trouble making the B-29 work, the US was the only country with both a nuclear bomb and a bomber capable of delivering it. And the budget to refine it to make it work. B-29 variants would serve well past WW2, in one form or another, into the 1960s.

She’s waited long enough and decides to turn up the heat. So why is he being so dense?

Thank you for keeping this fic safe, @kelkat9 THanks @buffyann23 , @emkaywho, @lunaseemoony, @perfectlyrose, and @soophelia for pointing me in the right direction and/or sending me the original prompt pic, which I had lost. (If anyone else replied with help finding the photos, thanks! I tried to list everyone that helped.)

I’m listening to Kendrick Lamar as my sister is watching Mamma Mia next to me and I’m replacing the soundtrack in my head so Amanda Seyfried is on a Greek beach rapping King Kunta
