Collings Foundation acquires Evergreen B-17

Post by TAdan »

As I am sure most here are already aware... The Collings Foundation has acquired B-17 44-83785 from the Evergreen collection and intends to return her to flight! Very exciting news!

Sounds like the plan is to utilize Shady Lady on the Wings of Freedom tour which will allow 9-0-9 to receive some more intense maintenance. 8)
So many warbirds so little time.
