The Gulf Coast Wing is a unit/wing of the Commemorative Air Force (CAF), and is a nonprofit 501-c-3 organization. Our membership is comprised of hard-working volunteers whose love of aviation restoration keeps these vintage aircraft flying. The Gulf Coast Wing receives no state or federal funds, and depends on public contributions for the maintenance, support and flying operation-expenses of these airplanes. Your donations are tax-deductible to the extent permitted by law. TEXAS RAIDERS is an authentically restored B-17G and is one of just a few remaining airworthy B-17s left in the world today.
