Google ' Collings Foundation ' . They tour the west coast of Florida every January/ February with a B-24 Liberator, B-17G and a two seat P51, in alll of which you can book a ride or just walk through the bombers.
I never miss this show. Love the engine starts and taxiing and photo-ops.

The Melbourne (Florida) Air Show was fun. I always love to see the P-51 ( my father flew one in WWII ) and the B-17. Maybe next time I will shell out the big bucks and take a flight! This is the "Memphis Belle". Not too many of these great planes left. They turned the tide of WWII in the favor of the allies with their daylight precision raids at a cost of 30,000 air crew.
an awesome and amazing aircraft!
