The Airbase Arizona Flying Museum, a unit of the Commemorative Air Force, is bringing two unique pieces of history to the region this month.

Two iconic WWII bombers, the B-17 Sentimental Journey and B-25 Maid in the Shade, will travel to Warrenton-Fauquier Regional Airport and Hagerstown Regional Airport.

The aircraft will be open for tours June 9th – June 14th in Warrenton and June 16th-June 21st in Hagerstown.

The B-17 Flying Fortress Sentimental Journey is one of only four still flying out of over 12,700 made for combat during WWII, but this particular aircraft did not see combat service.

The military used the aircraft for training, mapping, and air-sea rescues before selling it as surplus for use as a fire bomber.

The CAF fully restored the aircraft in 1978.

The B-25 is viewed as one of the best weapons and most versatile aircrafts of WWII.

Maid in the Shade flew 15 combat missions over Italy and Yugoslavia and mainly targeted railroad bridges.

After the war, crews used the plane as a trainer before converting it into an insect sprayer.

The CAF acquired the aircraft in 1981 and then completed a 28-year restoration before flying it again in 2009.
