Just read that Nine-O-Nine, Collings Foundation B-17 has been sold to " CCT OF 1979 B-17 SERIES LLC". Anyone know what the future holds for her?

I would suppose we are looking at a transfer for legal and/or tax purposes here, not an actual operator/owner change


I guess you were right. Does this have any impact on operations?

Sounds like he's probably just transferred it over into a alternate entity name (maybe for tax reasons). It happens all the time with warbirds. I've seen some planes "trasferred" two or three times into oddly named LLC's, etc, though they never left the original owner's possession. I doubt Mr. C has suffered a sudden change of heart regarding his infamous bomber duo, but I guess ya never know.

Speak of the Devil, I was just at Moffett a half an hour ago. 909, Witchcraft and Tondalyo are looking good. There's a bunch of Stearmans over there too. Looks like they're giving Stearman rides also. I was going to look up Jim H, but they said he was busy signing folks up.
