Ah the memories.
Somewhere I have a (not very good) photo of a number of the B25’s parked up at Blackbushe. Pretty much the start of my warbird obsession although I was equally interested in getting my Father to buy me a mars bar!

Did even one manage to maintain flight status to the present day ?
One incarcerated in Hendon
Another cremated in the Le Bourget (?) museum fire
One retired to a Spanish museum following a tree-strike!
One spread across Coventry, then Sandtoft before going to continent for preservation.
And number five, back in the States perhaps ?
