Micdrow, I love Thunder over Michigan. I went in 2005 for the B017 gathering and again in 2006 with my father for the BoB show. Mr Walsh and his son does a wonderful job. Grab get a seat in the photo pit, it is the only way to go. If I go, I will buy you a cold one.

You should be able to get inside one of the B-17s. It is a bargin at $5.00. Over the years I have been inside just every type flying stateside except the
A-20. If the Bell does not have tours one of the others will. The CAF's B-24 was open last year when it was in Houston. I think the Thunderbird will be there again this year and they have tours. I hope you get to go.

Is it an F model or a G made up like an F? Either way it is a good looking plane. There are normaly several reinactors in 8th AF uniforms hanging around it in the mornings. It makes for nice pictures. Have you made it inside of FiFi? I was surprised how large it is.

yes the Memphis Belle allows tours at least it has at our AirShow and Geneseo speakinfg of Geneseo this year they plan to have at least 7 P 40'sVery cool, biggest thing I have to do is talk my wife into it. Ive seen most of the aircraft and touched them at the EAA airventure. I would love to climb inside the Memphis Bell if they allow tours. Ive been inside the Lancaster thats coming.
