Thanks for the heads up on "SJ" warbirdguy. When I looked at their web site on Sunday they only had the two stops in Arizona posted.

This means five of the 10 airworthy B-17's in the United States are already on tour and offering rides and the will go up to 6 in May !

In no particular order ~ those offering rides are .... Aluminium Overcast / Liberty Belle / Nine-O-Nine / Sentimental Journey / Thunderbird and Yankee Lady.

Later this year this should go up to 7 out of 11 when Texas Raiders takes her place back in the sky !

Oh for a lottery win ....... I know how I would spend my summer ~ and the money

Peter, I know that Don Price would gladly let you write a nice big check for Texas Raiders! How many flights would you like up in the nose? Alan

Just think , for like $4,000 you could fly in each of the flying B-17's. Of course that is alot of moey, but what a way to spend it.
