Yea .. I never flew in her.. my B17 ride was aboard the EAA "Aluminum Overcast"...,, I had been in and around Nine-0-Nine several times..I did ride in Colling's B25 and B24.. such a shame to lose her.Β FAA has lifted Colling's exception for taking people on flights in their aircraft.. I dont know if it will be restored, or not.. I hope so.

I don't know if having Mr. Magoo as your mascot is going to inspire accurate bombing

Now that is one familiar looking plane!Β Being the "purist" that I am, I just wish they would not put all the signatures of donors on the fuselage but since it's not my plane.....Β

yea.. I guess they need to perpetuate their contributor base the best way they can..those things are expensive to maintain and keep flying

Yes, a HUGE bankroll is needed to keep those WONDERFUL MACHINES airworthy!!!
