    Collings Foundation B-17 and B-24 will be at the Palwaukee airport in Wheeling, IL from July 17-20.

    I am going to be sure to take a flight this time.

    Greg :D

    WOW! You lucky Americans...

    Be sure to bring a laod of cash though. I believe half an hour flying in one of these babes will set you back a couple of hundred $$!

    Nonetheless, it will be the experience of a lifetime! And you help preserve a wonderful plane...

    Don't worry I will be sure to get alot of pics [​IMG] . What's great is that it is held at the 94th Aero Squadron restaurant. They park the planes on the lawn at the back of the restaurant.

    In front they have a mockup of a P-47 and P-51, and in back they have a P-38. My dad and I agreed last year that we would go there to eat this year so here's our chance. [​IMG]
