I spoke with a tour guide at WPAFB Museum this summer who also worked in the restoration building specifically on the Memphis Belle. He told me that the cost and effort to restore a plane to flying condition dwarfs the cost of bringing it to show condition. The museum decided its better to restore and thereby save more aircraft this way than to bring a few up to flying condition. For example, the wiring in a plane like this would have to be ripped out and replaced or it would go up in flames.

My Grandfather was a mechanic on these. He flew to London on the one that used to be on display in Dayton, OH. What a time that must have been!
