B-17 Flying Fortress info...... Houston area

[kiwi#9582]

Saturday, the 14th, the B-17 will be at Conroe airport for tours and rides!!!!  I will not be there... ( on vacation. ), but it will be available all day and maybe Sunday the 15th if there is enough interest

Best of all, of course, you can meet Texas Raiders up close. For a nominal admission you can take a walk-through tour inside the aircraft  ($5.00 donation ). If you want the ultimate Flying Fortress experience, you can purchase a flight on the historic bomber.    Each flight accommodates only eight passengers, so if you are interested you should make a reservation now!

The Living History Flight Experience takes about an hour and a half altogether, with about a half-hour in flight. A seat in the center of Texas Raiders costs $425. If you'd like to ride in the nose of the aircraft (where the bombardier and the navigator sat) those seats are $625 each. Your tax-deductible donation goes to the restoration and operation of Texas Raiders and others like her.  ( The waist seats are better anyway.  You can get up and walk around during the flight and get access to the cockpit and dome for great pics!!!!. )   If you are interested in booking a flight, please call our Ride Coordinator at 1-855-FLY-A-B17 (855-359-2217).
