Maybe no hop in a B-17 this year

The Nine-O-Nine and Dragon and His Tail are coming to the Chicago area and I wanted to take a flight. Unfortunately the only times they have right now are Thursday at 6pm and Saturday morning at 8am. I can't make either of those times so I'm just on the waiting list for Saturday afternoon/evening.

How much do they charge for a ride and how long does it last? It would be fun to sit in the nose. If you go don't forget the camera and video !!

It costs $400 for a 30 minute ride. I'm also contemplating the money as I want to get a house by the end of the summer. Apartment life is not more for me, too much noise

.

Stevin I have to go to a client's in the morning and won't be able to take a flight until late afternoon, that's why I can't do it Saturday morning.

Either way I will be sure to stop by and get some more pictures of them on the way home.

Greg--I wish you good luck on finding a bigger house than your sitting on now. Oh and make sure you don't have a target painted on the side--the trigger finger is itchy and it's difficult to control The Red Baron.

I see Greg. Well, work does go before fun, so I guess you'll have to wait till next time they come around. At least I am sure you will hitch a ride in one of these babies before any of us here in Europe do...

Pity though...

Is it an idea to take your client on that trip with you? I am sure that'll do something for custumer-relations!
