This 1944 WWII B-25 Mitchell affectionately known as "Show Me" comes from The Missouri Wing of the Commemorative Air Force, St. Charles, Missouri. This rare warbird is among only a handful of B-25's to still grace the sky's and one of the few in the Midwest. "Show Me" is recreating its 1989 Heritage flight in Columbia, Missouri with the WWII P-51 Mustang “Gunfighter” as a special salute to our 25th Year Celebration. The North American B-25 Mitchell was an American twin-engined medium bomber manufactured by North American Aviation. It was used by many Allied air forces, in every theater of World War II, as well as many other air forces after the war ended, and saw service across four decades. The B-25 was named in honor of General Billy Mitchell, a pioneer of U.S. military aviation. By the end of its production, nearly 10, 000 B-25s in numerous models had been built. Max takeoff weight: 35, 000 lb. Max speed: 272 mph.
