I know it is expensive. It's a real treat.
@HoraceGreenley was $2100 for the 20 minute fighter flight

@saragoodtimes
OMG@ that's a lot more than I expected. My father psid $400
@HoraceGreenley guess they have to recoup the cost of flying those old planes halfway around the country plus only 1 rider at a time in the fighter

Yeah, it's expensive. Fuel costs and maintenance is not cheap. Parts aren't easy to get either and few people know how to work on them.
@HoraceGreenley did some research. all these years thought my grand uncle was a gunner on a B-17. It was wrong. he was a nose gunner on a B-24. (the Moron) they were shot down over Hungary. all but the co-pilot survived and were listed as MIA until confirmed to be POW's. my great grandfather didn't speak english so my Grandma handled all communication with the army air corp.
