Ever Hitched a Ride Aboard a B-24?

Commemorative Air Force Liberator "Diamond Lil" and Co. Offer Rides in Style

The SUN 'n FUN Aerospace Expo is offering a unique opportunity to experience warbirds in a big way with the Commemorative Air Force (CAF) Aircraft Rides. The event will feature a wide range of warbirds in the daily airshow, and visitors can take the ride of a lifetime.

The CAF Aircraft Rides will be held at SUN 'n FUN Aerospace Expo, which is one of the largest and most successful aviation events in the world. The event features air shows, educational exhibits, aircraft static displays, professional gatherings, and more fun activities for aviation enthusiasts of all ages.

The CAF Aircraft Rides will include a variety of warbirds such as the B-29 Super Fortress FIFI, B-24 Liberator Diamond Lil, RC-45J Expediter, T-6 TEXAN, P-51 Mustang Gunfighter, SBD Dauntless Speedy D, LT-6 Texan, T-34 Mentor, and PT-19 Cornell. Visitors can book a ride on their favorite warbird and experience the thrill of flying in a vintage aircraft. The CAF Aircraft Rides are an excellent opportunity to experience the history of aviation and learn about the brave men and women who flew these aircraft during World War II.

The SUN 'n FUN Aerospace Expo is a non-profit organization that aims to inspire and educate people on the aerospace industry. The organization hosts events throughout the year to raise money for the Aerospace Center for Excellence (ACE), which has emerged as a nationally recognized leader in STEM-related and aerospace education through its various learning centers, outreach programs, scholarships, and summer camps aimed at engaging, educating, and accelerating the next generation of aerospace professionals. The SUN 'n FUN Aerospace Expo is Florida’s largest annual convention of any kind, and each year over 200,000 visitors flock to what has become known as “Aviation’s Season Opener” or “Spring Break for Pilots”, and there's no better ride than a vintage warbird.
