Just guessing it was Fuddy Duddy or Miss Angela https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_surviving_Boeing_B-17_Flying_Fortresses

Last year they toured in the Ford Tri-Motor which I purchased tickets for my father and my Mrs. I was out of town and couldn't attend. On occasion they tour with their P-51C but due to the cost, I can't justify $3500.00 for a flight/back seat ride.

If I'm going to pony up that type of money, I'll go full tilt and get checked out in one out in Florida. Crazy Horse or SixPac are the two twin place D's. Only takes a fat checkbook.

Cheers

Took dad up on the Y.L. for his 70th. Best $800 wasted ever!
Did some volunteer work one summer for the museum and should have done more.

Exceptional range w/Hawaii to NY nonstop (yes to sleeping at the wheel). First 3 kills of Korea against jets.

The crew getting ready to do the annual Memorial Day tribute fly-by at all the local airports in the Sacramento Area. They use the Placerville Airport as a staging area to launch the event.
