B-25 Underwing Bomb Racks

[noizeedave]

So Im going to have to revist this question every few months, until i die...

BUT.... I'm curious to know who might have or know who has for sure the original underwing bombracks and pods for the B-25? I will buy them if reasonable or lease 1 for big bucks, for a month to reproduce!



Please pass the word on.

Thanks
Dave

Were they ever actually used outside of testing?

Oh yeah quite a bit. I've even got pics of B-25Js toting big 180 gal drop tanks!

Could you post them? I was crew on the B-25 Iron Laden Maiden back in the late 80's. We were always curious about that stuff in the maint. manual and wondered IF they ever used 'em.

I got lots of weird parts for the bomber.

Like this 585 Gallon Bomb Bay Ferry Fuel Tank!







The wing mounts will complete my large weird, hardly seen B-25 items! hahah

Well...Then ill need the Torpedo Rack.....Then the Chemical Tank.....so Okay, my obsessions might never end... But they serve a great historic purpose.....TO share them with the public at airshows...right?

[Pogmusic]

I'd seen the Bomb Bay tank before; but, it is great to see that at least one is around!!!!!!

[noizeedave]

There are 2 around. I pretty sure Grumpy has one still and Us.

[Jack Cook]

No there's a third and it will be put to use fairly soon.

NICE to hear!! I Love it! The more the Merrier!

Could 'super rabbit' be going somewhere but NOT in a container?
