Sentimental Journey Visits Evansville  
Sentimental Journey is the name of the Commemorative Air Force's restored World War II era B-17 bomber that visited Evansville September 9th through the 12th. Visitors could tour the plane on the ground for a $4.00 fee, or for $400.00 they could take a short flight around Dress Regional Airport. Sentimental Journey is one of only fourteen operational, restored B-17's in the world.
