     It is the B-17 and B-25 that are appearing in Melbourne this weekend.  I 
realize that the Collings Foundation most popular show package is the B-24 
and B-17, but the Melbourne affair has the B-25.  Here is the schedule item from 
the collingsfoundation.org site itself:

3/4 - 3/6     Melbourne, FL (B-17 & B-25)
              Airport: Melbourne International Airport
   
And this is consistent with the publicity inserts and newspaper ads, which 
show a "B-17 Flying Fortress and B-25 Mitchell" appearing.
