5th of September, 2026
On Saturday, September 5, 2026, Planes of Fame Air Museum presents another in our series of Hangar Talk events along with our monthly aircraft flight. The Museum will be featuring the visiting Commemorative Air Force B-17G and Museum's the North American P-51D 'Mustang'.
The Commemorative Air Force (Arizona Wing) is returning with their Boeing B-17G “Flying Fortress” “Sentimental Journey” and once again they will be offering rides in this historic warbird. Rides are scheduled from Thursday, September 3, 2026 until Sunday, September 6, 2026. Tickets are available for the currently scheduled 13 flights during these days (they will add more as needed). They offer two seating opportunities with each flight: $475 USD per waist compartment seat (6 available) and $850 USD per Bombardier/Navigator seat (2 available).

Museum admission gets you a chance to tour the B-17 "Sentimental Journey" on Wednesday (September 2) and in the afternoon starting Thursday thru Sunday.
This month, we’re flying a “fan-favorite” – the North American P-51D “Mustang”. At 12:15pm, the Museum’s pilot will fire up the powerful Merlin engine inside the Mustang right in front of the crowd, then taxi away for the flight.
We’re not only thrilled to be visited by the Commemorative Air Force – Arizona Wing and their Boeing B-17G “Flying Fortress” “Sentimental Journey” but immediately following the P-51D Mustang’s engine start, the B-17 will fire up her four radial engines and taxi directly in front of the crowd. Our Mustang will then perform over the Museum for twenty minutes and upon its return, guests can participate in a Q & A with our pilot.
