Would you help to keep the Colljngs Foundation bombers flying?

The Collings Foundation B17, B24 and B25 permit to fly the planes for 30 minutes with paying passengers (to help defray the costs of flying and maintaining the aircraft ) will expire in 2 weeks. To help getting the permit renewed please write to the follwing and include in your letter the specifc info that I will enumerate.
Marion Blakey, FAA Administrator e-mail marion.blakey@faa.gov
Ida Klepper, Office of Rulemaking e-mail ida.klepper@faa.gov
Collings Foundation exemption letter 6540F
B 17 N93012
B 24 N224J
B 25 N3476G
It would be a terrible thing for living history to go down the drain, and to deprive future generations of the WW2 era. My generation will not be around too much longer, so please write and help to keep them flying

I would appreciate it if you would send me a copy of your letter. Also be sure to mention where you live.

The Collings B17, B24 and B25 received their permit to fly passengers. Thanks to those people who wrote to the FAA. It kept living history from going down the drain.
