Hello friends,
I just posted notice of the Wings of Freedom Tour under the events section. Anyone interested in seeing (or flying in) a B-17, B-24, or B-25 aircraft should definitely see this. To simplify things, here's the link again:

On a related note, the B-17G flown by these folks is the Nine-o-Nine. I found a very interesting link containing some color photos (modern) from the Ed Nored collection. The aircrew posed beside the Nine-o-Nine during its stop at Chico, CA. It's a great ensemble of vintage flight gear and even a couple of lady's uniforms.
Here is the link to that website:
