The Enola Gay: Hiroshima, Oppenheimer & the Flight That Changed History | Flights Series Ep. 2

In this episode of our Flights miniseries, James takes us aboard the Enola Gay—the B-29 bomber that dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima in August 1945. This is not just a story of aviation—it’s a moment that split history in two.

We explore the mission through the eyes of the crew, especially pilot Paul Tibbets, while examining the role of J. Robert Oppenheimer and the Manhattan Project. From the events leading up to the bombing to the devastation that followed, this episode confronts the technological, military, and moral weight of one of humanity’s darkest milestones.

Whether you’ve seen Oppenheimer or just want to understand the flight that changed the world, this is a gripping and sobering listen.
