I just now learned that then-Major Charles Sweeney, the pilot of
Bockscar on the Nagasaki mission, died in Boston last Thursday at the
age of 84. According to an obituary this morning in the Aero-News
email newsletter:


I met Fred Olivi, the copilot of that mission, at OSH in 2000. Is he
still going? He looked pretty venerable by then.
