Blue B-25?

its a standard Varga artwork that was used on many aircraft including those used by Mr. Branston.

Doesn’t a B-17 have very similar nose art?

..Is there an echo in here?! 😉

Should you need to go and have a look at a real PBJ in an accurate scheme, the IWM’s B25 in the American Air Museum is painted up as a PBJ. The CAF’s ‘Devil Dog’ squadron also operate a hard-nose PBJ over in the States, although I don’t know how accurate the paintjob is, or indeed whether PBJ’s ever really did have the hard-nose.

EDIT: It appears the Marine Corps modified a number of PBJ’s with hard noses, and the overall blue scheme on “Devil Dog” is accurate for an aircraft of VMB612, a unit that was engaged in night-attack duties.

Don’t forget there’s the AAM at Duxford’s ‘PBJ’ chaps…

That particular airplane scheme is the former paint scheme of the Lone Star Flight Museum’s B-25. It was painted up in pseudo PBJ markings and flew around the states here promoting the Disabled American Veterans cause.

You can see it in it’s old markings here: http://www.cablesmart-austin.com/LSFM.html

It is now flying in colors honoring the Doolittle Raiders: http://www.af.mil/photos/mediagallery.asp?galleryID=2456&page=12

That is the paint job as worn by Lone Star Flight Museum’s B-25 up until a few years ago.

US Navy version of the B-25 🙂

Looks like it
I’ve found out what it’s called – “Special Delivery”

Known as the “PBJ-1” to US Navy and Marine Corps, can’t speak for that specific aircraft but the B-25/PBJ-1 were used in large numbers by both services.
