Along the same lines you can get a ring on Aluminum Overcast, a B-17 that
makes the round ever year.  See http://www.b17.org/ for more information.  I
took a ride almost 10 years ago back in NJ.  We went south to the shore and
then alone the coast.  At the time I think it cost $350 and was worth every
cent.  I was amazed by how the the B-17 is.  The bomb bay is tiny.  No
wonder they had to make some many trips.  Also those planes tend to attract
some of the bomber crews that are still alive. Makes for an interesting day.
