How much does it cost to operate B-29 Doc?

Well, when most people go to the gas station, the cost ranges from $50-$100 depending upon how many gallons of gas you purchase and the price of gas. When we go to the gas station to get fuel for Doc, well, it’s a bit more complicated (and expensive)!

On average, Doc burns approximately 450 gallons of 100LL (avgas) per flight hour. And, on average, the price per gallon of 100LL is $5.70. That means for only one hour of flying time, it costs approximately $2,500 in fuel alone.  But wait, there’s more!

In addition to fuel and oil costs, we must also take into consideration propeller, engine and maintenance reserves and costs.

So, all-in, the estimated cost per flight hour is about $3,600. And, we typically fly about 10-15 hours per month so…yeah, it’s a big number.

Why do we do it?  That’s simple: Honor. Educate. Connect.

Are there any passenger restrictions?

Each passenger must be at least 6-years-old, able to climb a 6′ ladder and enter the crew entry door, which is 19″ wide and 32″ tall in the aft section. Passengers must also be able to climb through the pressure bulkhead door (circle) which is 29.5″ inches in diameter. For the forward section, passengers must be able to climb a 6′ ladder and enter through the forward crew entry door, which is 37″ x 29″. All passengers onboard B-29 Doc must also be able to sit in their own seat, operate their own seatbelt , and must be able to respond to commands from the flight crew, if necessary, during flight.

What’s your refund policy?

All B-29 Doc Flight Experience sales are final. If there is a need to delay or change the flight time or date due to weather, sky conditions, aircraft maintenance or airport operations, we will reschedule all passengers for either later in the day or the next day. Every attempt will be made to keep the flights on time and as scheduled, especially as it relates to the date of the flight. If a passenger is not able to delay the flight or reschedule to another flight, the ticket will be refunded. That decision will be made on the day of the flight. Additionally, if the passenger has a medical condition or diagnosis that interferes with the passenger’s ability to fly in B-29 Doc, a refund will be issued. All ticketed passengers are responsible for their own travel to and from the location of the flight departure; all passengers are required to arrive at the flight departure site no later than one hour prior to the scheduled flight departure. We also offer flight ticket transfers, but that must be handled 24 hours prior to the flight.
