I don't know their policy on dogs, but you can check with the folks at Planes of Fame to see what that policy is.

Would love to go but the way this year is going Im even going to have to cut down my trip to the EAA from 7 days to 4.

[comiso90]

Do they know if the Original Zero or P-26 will be flying? I may make the trip and that may be the deal closer.

Any other surprises in store?

[syscom3]

The Zero they have is origional.

If you are planning to come down, send me a PM. Maybe we can get together.

yeah I know, thats why I want to make sure it's flying! The program states "pearl harbor" zero. I don't know if thats terminology for a different hack job from one of the movies or if it's the real deal. Are there 2 zeros - one authentic and one Hollywood hackjob?

Nothing says original ww2 zero will be flying.

The Zero's are authentic in nearly every regard. I think the only difference is one of them has a replacement engine, the other has the origional Sakae powerplant.

These are WW2 veterans. No Hollywood rebuilds!
