The Kee Bird was a United States Army Air Forces Boeing B-29 Superfortress, serial 45-21768, of the 46th Reconnaissance Squadron, that became marooned after making an emergency landing in northwest Greenland during a secret Cold War spying mission on 21 February 1947. While the entire crew was safely evacuated after spending three days in the isolated Arctic tundra, the aircraft itself was left at the landing site. It lay there undisturbed until 1994, when a privately funded mission was launched to repair and return it. During the attempted recovery, a fire broke out, resulting in the destruction and loss of the airframe on the ground.

  • Il Kee Bird, soprannome assegnato al bombardiere Boeing B-29-95-BW Superfortress della United States Army Air Forces (USAAF) immatricolato col numero 45-21768 ed assegnato al (46º Squadrone di Ricognizione), era un aereo militare che, dopo un atterraggio di emergenza nel nordovest della Groenlandia nel corso di una missione segreta di spionaggio durante la Guerra fredda, il 21 febbraio 1947, fu abbandonato dopo il salvataggio dell'equipaggio. Lì rimase fino al 1994, quando una spedizione tentò di recuperarlo, provocandone però la distruzione. Oggi i suoi rottami si trovano in questa posizione: 80°15′36″N 60°31′05″W / 80.26°N 60.518056°W (it)
