Collings' 17, 24 & 25 usually comes through Texas in the Spring.

EAA said they'll be coming to Texas sometime towards the late Fall with "Aluminum Overcast."

Let's not forget that LSFM are also offering rides now with the B-17 and B-25 ~ http://www.lsfm.org/

And of course a number of WIXers are doing there utmost over at the CAF GCW trying to get their B-17 ~ Texas Raiders back into the air and selling revenue rides in 2008 !

Texas is going to be blessed with B-17's selling rides in 2008 :D

You can always come to Ft. Worth and see Our Lady of the Airfield "Chuckie"

I don't know if there is any winter flying planned but it never hurts to ask...
