Waiting at an airport near you

The B-17 Memphis Belle sits at Martin State Airport.
The Liberty Foundation's "Memphis Belle" is making Martin State Airport its home August 18 and 19 for tours and rides. The bomber usually flies between 10 AM and 3 PM each day with tours offered after the day's flights.  The Curtiss P-40 did not make the trip. See the website to reserve a seat on the B-17. http://www.libertyfoundation.org/index.html

The Museum will be open its regular hours, 11 AM to 3 PM, both Saturday and Sunday.
