B-17 In Canton, Ohio
Bruce McKelvey will be flying into Canton, Ohio, on August 17, Monday, and will be there through the following Sunday. He will be with the restored B-17 he often flies with out of Arizona. The aircraft will be on static display through Thursday that week. They will be conducting Revenue Rides from Friday through Sunday. Since Canton isn't far from RR area, Bruce is hoping some of us will be able to get down there during that week. I've seen the airplane and learned a lot about it from Bruce. It is very interesting and he loves talking about it. If anyone has questions or wants more information, you can call Bruce @ 602-743-3432
