Wow....what a special flight! Please be very safe on your trip. *Hugs*

It may be getting more special as time goes by. Earlier this year I heard there are only 12 still flying. Last week, a man claiming authority said there may be 12 in the world, but there are only 4 in the US. True or not, it'll be a blast and an experience to remember.

From http://www.warbirdalley.com/b17.htm

After the war, several dozen B-17s lived on as fire-bombers and aerial surveyors until the last one was retired in the 1970s. Today, a few B-17s have been restored to their wartime splendor. Eleven are currently flying in the United States, one in the UK and another one in France. [History by David MacGillivray]

A friend of mine, a WWII Army Air Force Vet, flew 34 missions over Europe in one of those.

THANK YOU! Thank you for that link, warbirdalley.com!

This fellow also mentioned a fellow who owns a company down in Kissimee, FL, whixh restores old military aircraft. Have you heard anything of him? It sounds like something to look into.
