Description
...found this spiffy lady at an airshow in Kansas City. It was one hot day...mid 90s (f)
There were 9,000 B-25s built and today only about 30 remain.
Very zoom worthy. Helps you see all the shiny bits:)
...This WWII B-25J, "Miss Mitchell", served in the 310th Bomb Group, 57th Bomb Wing of the 12th Air Force in North Africa and Italy completing over 130 missions. Its legacy of no crew fatalities during all of its missions was a rare accomplishment.
For those who want a little more info here's a web page for you.

Oooooooohhh ... lovely shiny bits! Zoom is great. I really like the reflections. The landscape behind you is visible in the engine ... housing ... nacel ... whatever it's called. (Too much Star Trek, you think?), and I love the reflection of the prop in the fuselage. (Okay, THAT I'm sure about.) :P Nice shot!

Superb shiny thing!!!! Our Air Show is on at present but as Buster can be very upset by some of the noise I doubt I shall go and watch...I can hear it all from the house and hold his paw, so to speak.

Ooh, lots of shiny metal, I'd be right up against it shooting weird angles and lines, and you'd never know where they came from!

Well, I thought that skyline looked familiar! LOL! When was this show? If it was a couple years ago, I was there with my dad, but he was getting hot and tired, so we left early. We saw the B25 fly in as we were leaving. Nice shot of this classic, Bill!

SUPER COOL IMAGE!!!

Nice shot of the venerable lady, sitting proudly and being admired by the onlookers, Bill. But only 30 remain? That is sheer blasphemy and shortsightedness. I know there's one down here at the Chino Air Museum. And one visited us during the annual air show held in Los Alamitos last year.
