A prized possession of the National Warplane Museum, located at the Elmira-Corning Regional Airport in Big Flats, NY, is its B17-G shown here in the hangar (along with an ancient motorcycle--the Finger Lakes region was also home to motorcycle designers including Glenn Curtiss). This B17 appears often at air shows, and in the past would take six people at a time on short sightseeing flights for $350 each to raise money for its support. It's shown below taking off from Ithaca during a small air show and exhibit there.
