D-ATLANTIC AIR MUSEUM'S WORLD WAR II
WEEKEND
RE-ENACTOR REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED Effective midnight, May 21, the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum's World War II Weekend Re-enactor on-line registration procedure is closed. See all you dedicated history demonstrators at the show! Thanks for your participation.
OH HELLDIVER!
The Commemorative Air Force's West Texas Wing
is offering a whopping $150 discount for pre-show reservations to fly as
the gunner on their beautiful SB2C-5 "Helldiver" at our WWII Weekend.
All you have to do to take advantage of the deal is call the MAAM Office
(610) 372-7333 between 9:30 AM - 4 PM before June 6 to make your
reservation. PILOTS MAN YOUR PLANES! Reservations are now being accepted for the Mustang, Dauntless, Helldiver, Mitchell, and Flying Fortress. Call the museum at (610) 372-7333 between 9:30 AM - 4 PM to sign up for your seat aboard your choice of one these historic warbirds. But don't wait too long, or that entry on your bucket list may go unfulfilled, because many of the schedules will fill before the show. Reservations for the B-24 and B-29 are not taken by the museum (see the bulletin below). Flights aboard MAAM's quartet of trainers, the Stearman, Cornell, Valiant, and Texan, are not reserved , so sign up for these at the show. All together, that's eleven different legendary aircraft from which to choose! Wahoooo!
SIGN UP NOW FOR THE HEAVIES The Commemorative Air Force is now taking reservations for flights aboard their B-29 Superfortress "FIFI" and B-24 Liberator "Diamond Lil". Please note this change in procedure over past years - the Mid-Atlantic Air Museum is NOT taking the reservations for these two planes. You must sign up directly with the CAF, and you will receive a discount for signing up on-line. Direct links and all the information will be found on the B-24 and B-29 ride pages - just follow the Warbird Rides bomb link on the right.
THE BIG GIRL IS COMING! The world's only flying B-29, "FIFI", has confirmed and will, along with her hangar-mate, the B-24 "Diamond Lil" will be selling rides at World War II Weekend. All the details can be found on the Warbird Rides Page. The bomb link will take you there, then click on the aircraft photo or the Price-Details-Schedule link for information. The CAF will be taking all reservations on these two planes, so please don't call the museum. To sweeten the deal, you'll save money by reserving with the CAF online - from $100 to $25, depending on you seat selection. So don't wait to long, because the best seats sell out fast. Also travelling to Reading with the CAF will be the beautiful Beech C-45F "Bucket of Bolts" in RAF livery, and one of their many AT-6 "Texans".
