What has become of them.

Just a little more history on these B-25s. CF-DKU (Tanker 336) was primarily my father’s aircraft, after it was retired from Fire service it was sold to C+P Aviation in Minnesota and fully restored to Military colors. It won for best Warbird in Oshkosh airshow in 1999(flys as “Betty’s Dream”) CF-MWC (Tanker 337) was the first Air tanker my father flew when he started with NWAL back in 1974. It is still under going a very slow restoration in Washington State. After several years of fire service the retardant corroded the rear fuseluge to a point that it needed a new tail installed during it’s restoration. C-GUNO (Tanker 338) went to Santa Rosa, California and was restored to Military colors and flys as “Sunday Punch” CF-OND (Tanker 9) was always flown by Terry Harrold of NWAL (or his son Brian) right up to the time they traded it for a Beechcraft 99 back in the mid 1980s. (It now flys as “Carolina Girl”) in South Carolina. The Brown Bomber was owned briefly by NWAL and nows flys as “Silver Lady” in Oregon. The derelict ex RCAF B-25 was purchased by NWAL back in the early 1970s and was donated to the Edmonton aviation museum and is under going a very slow restoration to static display.
