History came to life at the Statesboro-Bulloch County Airport this week as vintage bombers and other planes landed for flight tours and display. The Wings of Freedom Tour was hosted by the Collings Foundation, and featured aircraft from World War II. War-era planes featured included the B-17 Flying Fortress "Nine O Nine," Consolidated B-24 Liberator "Witchcraft," B-25 Mitchell "Tondelayo" bombers and a P-51 Mustang "Toulouse Nuts" fighter. Visitors were invited to explore the aircraft inside and out, and to take a 30-minute flight aboard the rare aircraft.
