PRESS RELEASE
Adventure awaits Detroit-area residents desiring a visceral experience on a historic aircraft this Saturday, August 26th at the Yankee Air Museum’s Hangar located at the Roush Aeronautics Center at the Willow Run Airport at 48075 Tyler Rd, Van Buren Charter Township, MI 48111.
Encounter the power, nimbleness and iconic sound of radial engines of the World War II battle-tested B-25 Rosie’s Reply. What better way to experience history in flight than to fly on a 1943-built bomber that flew missions in Sicily during World War II.
Take a ride into yesteryear on Rosie’s Reply; the B-25D is the only flying model of that aircraft today and is one of very few aircraft that experienced combat during WWII. Public rides on the B-25 are available at 10:00 am until 1:00 pm. The ride is a 20-minute experience and costs $475.00 per person for one of four rear-compartment seats, which also gives access to the turret and tail section. Two flight deck and nose seats are also available for $575. To reserve your seat, go to https://yankeeairmuseum.org/fly/#b25.
