EAA is offering historic flight experiences in its beautifully restored B-17G Flying Fortress "Aluminum Overcast." One of only 14 Fortress's still flying, this aircraft is an icon of the Allied strategic bombing effort that helped turn the tide of battle in World War II. Unlike reading a history book, you can actually fly a mission back in time and feel the might of this magnificent machine, just as those brave young men did more than 60 years ago.

Going to try and make this one with my Dad, but not sure of the date.  I thought 9th was Good Friday but is not.  So note sure now.  That's a full weekend already for me with other family matters.

They are set up already.  Just need a B-17 now.  John's SNJ and Wilburs BT-13 will be near by it seems.
