The nose of the B-17 "Memphis Belle" at Concord Regional Airport. Owned and operated by the Liberty Foundation, this classic bomber is one of only 13 Flying Fortresses still flying today, out of nearly 13,000 built during World War II. It will be at Concord Regional Airport all week, with public flights available for $450.00 per person, on Saturday and Sunday, September 15 and 16. If you can't afford the flight, the aircraft will be open for ground tours on both days.
