: They were offering rides in the B17 for $350 a flight.. but I couldnt afford it at the time. Hope I get the chance again! There's only about 12 or less flying B17s left.
: I still have yet to see my favorite plane tho, the Mustang P51-D. Maybe at the Veterans Day celebration....
I asked about a flight and nearly fell over when told the cost I, too,
love the P-51 (the "B" version is my favorite) and, of course, the Spitfire. In fact, I had a chance to see four Spitfires flying in
formation at an airshow in Duxford, England when I was teaching in
London several years ago... way, way cool!
Do you live in the Cleveland area?
