Experimental Aircraft Association

The EAA flies this and other aircraft all over the country providing normal folks like us the opportunity to tour this amazing piece of history. Ground tours are $10.00 per person ($20.00 for a family) and kids under 8 years old are free. What we really enjoyed was that the tours were staffed by actual veterans. They were so friendly and willing to share their knowledge about this amazing plane and its history and significance to the war effort.

If you’d like to take the experience to the next level, you can also go on a flight tour in this amazing aircraft. That privilege will set you back $449.00 (less if you are an EAA member) but that truly is a once in a lifetime experience.
