Does anyone know what time Fifi is supposed to be flying into Daytona? I'd really like to see it land.

She is about to depart from Tallahassee. So, I would say in about an hour to hour an half.

Usually you can track via Fligthaware with her tail number being 529b

I'm going to chime in here and say again, if you get
a chance to got for a hop, don't miss it. It is one
tremendous experience. And the flight crew are
some of the nicest yankees I've ever met!

June 4, 2011 Reading Penn. was my flight in FIFI. I chose flight deck , observer seat. None better , in my opinion. You're right behind the pilot , across from the flight engineer and you can get up and move around. I thought I would like to be in the bomb aimers position , great view , but you couldn't see the "action" of the crew, which is a great experience in itself, and you stayed put for the flight. I took my own video and pictures plus I got the video from the cameras in the plane. Great time!!!!
