I wouldn't want to go up in one of those.  Some sore-head German (Like Trinity)might take a crack at it and get lucky.

Who am I kidding: I'd love to go up in a B-17 or B-25.

Don't have the 900 bucks fer me an the wife ta go up, but the tour fer 24 will be worth it. My Uncle Joe was a tail gunner on a B-17 and it would be something to see.

Yep, That 900 would be a little steep. I hope to get a ride in "Miss Mitchell" from the Minnesota Wing of the CAF. Some of the crew members are WW2 vets who served with my Dad in the Med.

I've seen FiFi, the B-29 back in the late 80's when she stopped here a couple times. Had a stop from a Calif. based B-17 that participated in the filming of "Memphis Belle" around that time frame, too. She was still in the Belle's paint scheme. While I was still working at the Ind. Park plant, there was a B-24 in, too. Didn't get to get close enough to that one, we were doing a lot of overtime then, in early ,out late. Saw it from a distance parked on the flight line...........Buck 8) ::)
