Ever wondered what it would be like to fly in a World War II era airplane? You can find out later this month when the Wings of Freedom Tour brings antique airplanes to South Jersey.

The tour will make two stops in the area, beginning next week. First up is a stop at the Millville Municipal Airport in Millville, Aug. 29 to Aug. 31. After that, it's the Cape May County Airport in Cape May, Aug. 31 to Sept. 3.
