Over
Sixty years ago they flew from bases far from home,
over occupied and enemy territory in an attempt
to weaken the forces of evil so that freedom could
once again return to the people who it was stolen
from. Their endurance was tested on missions
of ten or more hours, day after day; their strength
was proven as they returned countless crews safely
back to their bases. Crews counted on them and a
bond was made between man and machine...
...
Now they fly on missions that are quite different
than those of so long ago. Their mission for today
is to educate the world about our courageous World
War II veterans and to remember those who have left
us. These aircraft stand as tributes to their crews
and fly on as living history to enlighten future
generations.
The
best way to relive this history is to take a once-in-a-lifetime
flight onboard the B-17, B-24 & B-25. The Collings Foundation is proud to offer
our Flight Experiences on our Wings of Freedom Tour
in over 110 cities annually.
Imagine
yourself soaring onboard the flagships of the USAAF
Strategic Bombing fleet of WWII. Take your position
in the crew and experience a taste of what it may
have been like in WWII. Sit as bombardier, stand
as waist gunner, monitor flight activity as a flight
engineer would as you observe the pilots flying
the mighty bombers. You can wander through the plane
as you like.
Each
flight experience donation is fully tax deductable.
Every donation helps to defray maintenance and operations
costs for the aircraft that have reached over $4000
per operating hour per aircraft. Maintained to the
highest standards and flown by highly experienced
pilots, our aircraft safety standards are second
to none.
