The Tillamook Air Museum is pleased to announce that it will be hosting the Liberty Foundation's historic Boeing B-17G bomber (aptly named Liberty Belle) on its stopover into the Pacific Northwest. Visitors to the museum will have a rare opportunity to both tour the foundation's B-17, and in addition, flights to the public will be offered.
Liberty Belle will set down in Tillamook on Monday April 20th and be parked at the museum through Saturday morning, April 25th. Visitors to the museum wishing to board the B-17 may do so for an additional $5.00 while those more adventurous may choose to pay $430.00 for a 30 minute flight that will take passengers throughout the surrounding area (this includes a 15 minute pre-flight historical briefing). Once airborne, passengers will be free to move about the airplane and go to the various crew positions (nose, cockpit, Bombay, radio room and waist gunner stations).
Don't miss your chance to see the Liberty Foundation's beautifully restored Boeing B-17G bomber as it passes through Tillamook.
