'This airplane is a part of our history and it is a part of who we are,' said Dik Daso, curator of the aeronautics division of the museum.
The reassembled B-29 Superfortress was unveiled to the media yesterday in a hangar near Dulles International Airport at the museum's new annex, which opens on December 15. It carried the most destructive weapon of World War Two and now the Enola Gay, the aircraft that dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima in Japan, is going on display at the Smithsonian's Air and Space Museum.
