The Commemorative Air Force Museum Southern California Wing, which is based at Camarillo Airport, will be welcoming the B-17 Sentimental Journey tour the week of September 22nd. The tour is scheduled to end Monday, September 29th.
Residents can expect to see the Douglas B-17 Flying Fortress operational in the Ventura County area during its visit. One of only three B-17s in the world that are still flying, the aircraft can be expected to be seen flying lower and slower than what residents may see from other aircraft, which is typical for a B-17. The aircraft’s unique engine will also produce a different sound than what residents may typically hear.
The Sentimental Journey tour is offering both ground tours and flights beginning Wednesday. Click here to learn more.
