Doc’s Friends said on Tuesday its B-29 bomber, “Doc,” will participate in two air shows in September.

On Sept. 9 the restored Boeing Superfortress will fly to the Airpower Over Altus show at Altus Air Force Base in Oklahoma, where it will be on static display.

Later in the month, it will participate in the air show at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland. The World War II-era bomber will fly multiple times during the air show Sept. 13-15 and the days leading up to it, Doc’s Friends said in a news release Tuesday.

More information about the airplane’s September appearances will be available in the coming weeks, the group said, including on its website, www.b-29doc.com.
