One would think that after the loss of three airworthy B-17s (and the possible grounding of another as Collins seemingly announced their large aircraft are going static), that its value as a “flyer” has gone up considerably since it has been parked.
If they don’t operate it, I would hope they would consider selling it to someone who would.

I wonder if they would consider doing passenger taxi rides, as per Just Jane ( Lancaster- East Kirkby) , a great fund raiser, and maybe a pathway back to airworthiness.
