Two of the rarest World War II relics will make their way to neighboring Cambria County today.
According to a news release, the B-29 Superfortress “FIFI” and B-24 Liberator “Diamond Lil” will be heard when they arrive at the John Murtha Johnstown-Cambria County Airport. It’s part of the AirPower History Tour of the Commemorative Air Force. The Tour brings sights, sounds, and stories from World War II aviation to airports across North America. Visitors will have the chance to view the aircrafts up close, purchase rides and tour both cockpits.
Both bombers will arrive today at noon and will be accompanied by a T-6 Texan, a PT-13 Stearman, and a RC-45J Expeditor. The event will open to the public Tuesday and Wednesday this week from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. More information can be found by logging on to AirPowerTour.org.
