$495 with parachute.

$595 with instructions how to use.

$995 if you fire the twin nose .50s! :die:

How much to drop bombs?? :applaud:

I could drop $400.00 for a ride in vintage history. I think it would be a momorable experience.

I have blown more $$$ for lesser endeavors.

Yeah, I'm going to do it if it comes to Ohio.

As for $995 if you fire the twin nose .50s! http://audioheritage.csdco.com/vbulletin/images/smilies/diediedie.gif, I'm a quad .50 fan myself but twin .50's could be fun too. :p

You haven't lived until you've jumped onto the wing of a B-17 during take-off and surfed up there for a while. I'm not sure the game designers intended the plane to carry extra passengers that way, but it's hilarious....

For some reason that made me think of the airstrip scene in Pushing Tin. :rotfl:

I love this old powerfull planes. Saw and heared Mustang, Spitfire, Mustang, B 17 (maurauder ?), Mitchell, Hellcat, Hurrican, Harrier, F-18, Tomcat, Superconnie, ...
I want to see and hear a flying Messerschmidt Bf-108 and Focke-Wulf.
No, i`m not a Nazi, i only love this powerfull flying machines, not hear weapons.

Yeah they're pretty cool machines.

I don't feel like giving any of them any political affiliations at this point in time.
