However, Did crew that landed with a parachute the that be the thought in my half century return safely? The information that says that is not able to confirm. I need to check the GHQ record of the Department of Defense of U.S. to confirm their (Crew of B-29 and P-51) information. All the records in that time of the Japanese corps say that fear and incinerated the responsibility pursuit of the Allied Forces. The person who got involved in the event at that time passed away. The survey was thought as an impossibility.
However, as for the present, there is Internet. I disclosed my B-29 information with HP. And, I would wait for the information offer from the visiter. And, I thought to disclose even the information that was brought from the visiters.
When B-29 is searched with HP of U.S. promptly many information were disclosed. I check from simple question and I would have fun.
B-29's HP of U. S.
The crew of the B-29 was typically eleven, comprising pilot, copilot,
bombardier, navigator, flight engineer, radio operator, radar operator, central
fire control gunner, left side gunner, right side gunner and tail gunner. The
first six crewmen were housed in the forward pressurized cabin. The next four
were housed in the rear pressurized cabin. The tail gunner was in a separate
pressurized compartment in the tail. Later in the war, the crew size was
occasionally increased to 13 with the addition of two radar/radio operators to
man the radar and electronic countermeasures equipment.
The crew of the B-29 was typically eleven, Therefore, 3 people were indistinct.
Loss 5 body NO
SODAME crash machine: B29 #42-24766
Others loss machine: B29 #42-63418, B29 #42-24626, B29 #42-24748, B29 #42-24550
P.S. Accordingly, it is the article that I translated into English the one, that this article was translated an English sentence to Japanese once again
Air Balanco of the Nagoya up in the air
The accident broke out at the time of 3 times of bombing flight of American Maid.
American Maid underwent a trouble even it previous bombing flight.
In the beginning a fan dropped out from the 3rd engine.
The body upper part window damaged it with the bombing flight of 2nd.
And, the Heart master sergeant of top gunner is insufficient oxygen and was fainting.
The KURANTSU sergeant of this story felt anxiety for this accident.
It is because the body aspect window that is his one's post even to say that was sufficient size
for the purpose that the body of the human being goes through.
He thought in case that prepare for the worst and will add a spare strap.
Colleagues laughed when KURANTSU is a too nervous temperament.
The day American Maid was located in the tail end of formation.
The interception of this day Japanese corps were intense.
Many fighters came to attack.
Suddenly, the window of the body aspect exploded.
The KURANTSU sergeant was begun to inhale outside the machine.
At this time American Maid received the attack of the fighter of Japan from 6 direction.
Because of this crews did not notice that the KURANTSU sergeant was begun to inhale outside the machine.
A white fog suddenly occurred with the air pressure decline in the machine immediately after I received attack.
It was condition the confusion there being serious the wounded who it was shot.
After that the crew noticed although KURANTSU is not.
Furthermore the foot of KURANTSU saw that is caught by the window that cracked.
They tried to raise and tried to hold harness.
This situation the Daiton lieutenant in flight shot the neighbour a camera.
The face of KURANTSU that was raised into the machine was covered with the blood that froze.
He was pale the face, the eyeball that opened was freezing.
They thought that KURANTSU is dead, but, KURANTSU attached an oxygen mask.
After it passes a little KURANTSU takes consciousness and returned.
The KURANTSU sergeant was laid to the bed of the back cabin.
And it did the injection of, furthermore it did drop of blood plasma.
As a result, as for he, there was not an influence in life.
However, winter season equipment without,
it the outside air of -40 the above sea level 9600m in to was exposed the place.
Therefore he became the heavy frostbite.
And he was sent to the hospital of Hawaii.
P.S.
After this event, the US authority did Action of recurrence prevention quickly.
I think that this action under wartime is wonderful.
The window of the present jumbo jet plane I think a small reason to be the recurrence prevention of this event.
A huge bomb fell to the factory. B-29 of 3 machine, that came flying on the TOYOTA MOTOR CORP up in the air around Aug 14.1945 2p.m. dropped an ultra large bomb. Fall point be company residence home neighborhood, IMA town of Yahagi riverside and our factory, to it was each 1
The fall point to the factory was the vacant lot of a factory. Damage depended on the blast and was the loss of 2,396,000 yen with the amount in that time. This was 2% of the whole factories.
After the war, soon, the damage situation of the air raid of our company an U. S corps came to the survey. According to the schedule of the bombing that the time they showed, They began to bomb on August 14 and was scheduled to bomb it TOYOTA and KARIYA area in 3 to 5 days.Actually, having August 15 it does not become an end of the war. War, if 1 week continues the rest. It is thought that the factory of TOYOTA series each company where is in TOYOTA and KARIYA area ruined.
Automobile factory be, because it was not the 1st goal of the Japan proper bombing goal of U.S. The others of the machine-gunning by a fighter did not suffer big damage.
P.S.: The B-29 3 machine that came flying on TOYOTA is the special organization corps No. 509CG assignment of an atomic bomb drop in each case. The bomb that dropped it was the imitation shot of an atomic bomb and was called the nick name pumpkin.
Total that added B29A B29B of the improved model: 3943 machine.
1.B29 model :
Boeing company Wichita, Kansas plant: 1620 machine/From September, 1943 to October, 1945
Martin company Omaha, Nebraska piant: 536 machine/From 1944 to September, 1945
Bell company Marietta, Georgia plant: 357 machine/In February, 1944`January, 1945
2.Improvement model of B29
Boeing company Renton plant: B29A=1119 machine/Until May, 1946
Bell company Marietta, Georgia plant: B29B=311 machine/From January, 1945 to September, 1945
B29C=Contract nullification before production
It is the mass production in a short development period. The hell is called the fight of Kansas. It was gallant. It was Kansas that it became the a battlefield.
In the factory of establishment the production scene staff of the Boeing company already completed B-29 of 97 machine by April, 1944. However, it was 16 machine to be able to fly. Eighty-one remaining machine a part and device, without reaching, even if it is installed there is a faulty and also with, it was impossible flight
It was not only a body maker and engine maker to the production of B-29. A numerous subcontract enterprise got involved including a device. A those subcontract enterprise were not able to flatter the progress of a very rapid mass production plan.
It was a R-3350 engine that it was a problem especially. It entered into mass production in incomplete condition as the engine. Therefore the malfunction by the mistake and assembly defectiveness on the design frequently occurred. Moreover, the part supply became large confusion, because the design change and repair were put in succession for the correspondence. ----Below omission
The overheat habit that is the biggest weak point of an engine none the less was not repaired. One of the cause is in the design of body side. Cowling was not sufficient to the size of an engine for resistance reduction. Therefore, the air that cools the engine was not sufficient. ---- Below omission
However, there was a problem in the engine side. The lubrication of the cylinder head part is insufficient and the valve melted when this does overheat. And a fire occurred. Also there is the board called baffle, to admit cooling air between the cylinder that lined up in the radiation state to 2 lines every 9 base. Baffle damaged and also did overheat instantly, when there is an installation mistake and directly associated to the fire often. ----Below omission
Besides the work of the nights and days of many persons concerned were started for many problem solution. As for in the Mar 1944 U. S. Middle West winter did not leave forever. 1The engineers of an army challenged to the huge body of B-29 in, snow and cold wind to a Boeing and light company, it with the apron of the open air in, the Boeing factory of the base and Wichita of every place of Kansas and worked.
B-29 of 100 machine was delivered to a corps 5 weeks later as a result of the effort. The efforts of these engineers are called the fight of Kansas at the later time and be a topic.

1. Loss machine total= 403 machine@ 2. Total departure number= 26,814 machine. (Effective bomber number is about 80%.)
3. B-29 loss rate=403/26,814=1.5%
4. B-29 victim= 403 X 11 people=4,433 people- survivor
5. Japan Victim= military establishments/whole country main cities/Hiroshima & Nagasaki atomic bomb = about six billion people (by estimation)
6. The gasoline consumption volume=26,814 times X 35 kl/15 kl (a tank lorry )=62,566 units/tank lorry
