2011 EAA's Boeing B-17G California Tour Dates

Doug Robertson

The Experimental Aircraft Association's restored 1944 Boeing B-17G "Aluminum Overcast" is again making a California Tour this year. I toured N5017N 20 April 2010 when it came to nearby OXR and took many photos. The very popular N5017N has 326 photos of it on this site as I write this. The event is a great photo-Op whether you buy a ride or not.

Revenues from the B-17 tour help cover maintenance and operations costs for the aircraft and "Keep 'em Flying".

Being California-based, I only post here California Air Shows and California aircraft tours of noted aircraft such as the Experimental Aircraft Association's B-17G tours. The next closest EAA B-17G "Aluminum Overcast" tour to you living in Florida is scheduled for Dallas, TX, 4-6 November, 2011. They tour each Spring and Fall. See hundreds of photos of N5017N here on this site. It is one of the most photographed aircraft on the site.

Please web-browse Experimental Aircraft Association B-17G Tours to see the remainder of their 2011 Fall schedule-just three locations left to tour this year. Call the listed 1-800 number at bottom of my original post here for more information. As always, confirm before spending time or money.

Well Zane, I am just the messenger here, and the inquirer from South Florida removed his post, confusing the thread. Obviously, the EAA figures Dallas as a bigger draw than nearby Spinks. Take some more good photos of N5017N, there doesn't seem to be enough of them here, LOL!

The inquirer from Florida was actually a spammer from Brasil.
