Become a Stop Coordinator!!

Every year for the past 16+ years, over 130+ volunteers take on the responsibility of coordinating local tour stops for our B-17 and B-24. In their hometowns and beyond, they coordinate the logistics, publicity, and communications for the upcoming visit to bring living history to their local area. It is work, but the rewards are countless...the many lives touched by the few days that the bombers are on display, the memories of those who take flights, the veterans reunited with their plane, crew, or memories. The work seems small when you compare it to the value of helping accomplish the mission.

Beyond that, a tour stop can be a great way of promoting an aviation cause. Flying clubs, veterans groups, airport management... they have all seen the value in public relations that the planes bring to an event or as their own event. The sound of the radial engines over the town; the sight of two of Americas proudest aircraft flying in formation over the city... it brings the community out. Like the barnstormers of the early days of aviation; the B-17 and B-24 brings curiousity out, and leaves a lasting impression.

Do you have what it takes to bring our B-17, B-24 and B-25 to your hometown? Helping organize a tour stop for our bombers is one of the most rewarding experiences plus it can have its benefits. It is easier than you think! Send us an e-mail for more information.
