Yankee Lady is the same type of legendary aircraft, commonly called a Flying Fortress, which helped end World War II by crippling the enemies’ ability to wage war. Yankee Lady joined the United States Army Air Forces on July 16, 1945, shortly after Victory in Europe was declared.

Yankee Lady is one of only 10 airworthy B-17s in existence and none of these ever saw combat.

Self-guided ground tours are $8 for adults 15 and above; $3 for kids aged 6 to 15. All others are free. Air Adventure rides on the B-17 are available at 10:30 and 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. An Air Adventure ride is a 30-minute experience and costs $475.
