The B24 is the only one still flying. There are several B17 still flight worthy. A lot of P51 still flying.
Collings, along with several other non profits, offer flights to the public. $475 for the B24 flight of about 30 minutes. B25 is $425. P51 (2 seat trainer) is 2400 for 30 minutes and 3400 for an hour. They plan on hitting over 100 cities in the 2020 tour.
You can walk about the bombers during flight. Tail to nose in the B24. You take control of the P51 and they will do aerials during the flight.
You can to a walk through the bombers while they are on the ground for $12. Not much room in any of them. A lot of ducking, crawling, and squeezing to get around.
