The Eager Beavers

Send us Fan Mail

We hit the flying fortress of WWII, flown by the self named crew the Eager Beavers!!!  Flying the 666 into battle in the Pacific...this story is nothing but legendary!!!  What these men endured is nothing short of miraculous, how they survived is absolutely amazing!!!  Some legends rise to the occasion, some are just born!  Encountering torturous skies, flying a bomber into a straight up dog-fight in the skies...removing gear to add more machine guns, thinking out of the box, a ruckus crew, and a bullet riddled plane...but yet they were destined to complete a series of crucial missions, whom some thought they'd never make it back...but they did!!!

So, sit back and enjoy your flight, buckle up, it's gonna be a wild ride!
