Gathering of of twin's with the B-25 as a theme aircraft!!!

it will be the 75th anniversary of the Doolittle raid so it fits perfectly. Some P-38's, Catalina's, twin B-29's ( 8) he he he), Mosquito, A-26's....Maybe the XP-82....list goes on and on.

I just REALLY want to see like 12 or so B-25's lined up with a mass takeoff like this:

A Curtiss-Wright P-40 salute at Thunder is long overdue. It was the 5th highest scoring American fighter of WW II with 2225.5 kills!

Cheers,

How about "the wonderful world of two B-29's flying together" and whatever else shows up would be a bonus.
Here's envisioning two flying (and then imagining several more flying with them as well)

Korean war theme? Cold war theme? ... plenty of planes out there
