Great photo's Lyric1!

I spent about 4 years working on the restoration  of "Maid in the Shade", it's great to see it finally flying. If I am not mistaken it's 1 of only 3 or 4  currently flying B-25's that actually saw combat.

The Yankee Air Museum currently has the oldest Flying B-25.   It is a B-25 D-35 and saw combat action in Italy.   I'm helping them restore a B-24 at the moment.

This airshow IMO, is better than Dayton's.   Here is the run down of this year's planes so far: http://yankeeairmuseum.org/airshow/performers_attractions.php

Wow, thanks so much for posting these pictures - they're amazing! <S>
Afk for a year or so.  The name of a gun turret in game.  Falanx, huh? :banana:
Apparently I'm in the 20th FG 'Loco Busters', or so the legend goes.

any idea what squadron those 25's with the indian heads on them were from? also seeing 17 of them flying in formation less than a thousand feet from the ground, makes you feel very small and insignificant.

The bat nosed is with the 499TH & I think the other is the 500TH.
