Today at the Collin County Regional Airport in McKinney, Texas, I saw three WWII planes: P-51 Mustang (the only flight ready P-51 remaining), B-24 Liberator, and B-17. Also got to walk through the B-24 and B-17. The group sponsoring the event also would let you ride in all of them. The price was $425.00 for the B-24 and B-17, and I heard that someone paid $2200 to ride in the P-51, which took off while we were there and landed as we were leaving (about 15-20 minutes later). Here's an article that was in a local paper last week advertising the event:
Star Local News > Mckinney Courier-gazette > News > Bombers away!: Wings of Freedom tour of classic WWII aircraft lands at CCRA next week
This was sponsored by the Collings Foundation, and they will be at Love Field in Dallas over the weekend. The complete schedule is here: Wings of Freedom Schedule - The Collings Foundation
They were supposed to have a Huey there, but it was broken down and couldn't make the trip.
