Strange exhaust set up... full collector, one of the "Catch 22" birds had it.

B-25H 43-4432/N10V - per Scott Thompson's B-25 Mitchell in Civil Service, it was surplussed in '45 so didn't go through the Hayes mods (but had a lot of changes in civilian life, including those exhausts - it had multi-stacks originally).


That's actually the normal exhaust setup for an early B-25C. The Clayton stacks were introduced partway through B-25C/D production. If you look at B-25As they have two long stacks, and B-25Bs have one short on the right and one long on the left for some reason. No idea why N10V has these. It looks like that exact same configuration as the early B-25Cs stacks, but I have not heard of B-25Hs being fitted with these.
