Ah, I did wonder.

I saw this one at a show in Switzerland in about 1998. Podded weather radar on the wing, curtains in the waist windows, all guns and turrets removed, highly polished finish. Not really to my taste, I must say. It looks as though their P-38 is going a similar route too.........

Unless you are seeing something I'm not, that would be B-25J 44-30832

That is the Grumman C-1A Trader, if it was Willy Sanders plane, it is now owned by Hans Lauridsen and is in Glendale, AZ. I flew it out there, a rea fun plane to fly.

Ole Grey Mare is in those pictures as well, it also is now owned by Hans. The DC-3 in the back ground is Sanders, I saw it in Troy while picking up the C-1.

They had a raffle for a ride in Chuckie and the winner when they said the winners name, who was at the one end of the ramp, ran down the whole ramp screaming as they keep saying,
well, I just don't see him. It was almost as good as the Stealth Fly-by.....

"Bronco Bustin Bomber' back when it was with Don Davis and the Tired Iron team from Casper, WY before he sold it on to Jerry Tepper of Denver and it became 'Can Do' with Jerry (the green B-25...0832)...he sold it on to Wally Fisk and it flew as 'Buck' for a number of years, he installed a top turret on it (thank god), and subsequently it wound up with the folks at Warbird Digest as 'Green Dragon'....flew in her many times, miss her here in Denver quite a bit...
