The pilot had been a B-17 co-pilot with 546th Bomb Squadron, 384th Bomb Group, Grafton
Underwood (Station 106) , Northamptonshire, completing his combat tour May44. He was flying from
Heston (Station 510), Middlesex to Deenethorpe (Station 128), Northamptonshire when he decided to
divert a few miles off course and buzz his former squadron at Grafton Underwood. He had made three
passes and was coming back for a fourth. Putting the plane into a tight turn and slight dive, he was going to
level off over the barracks but the wing wouldn’t rise in the strong, gusting wind. A crash was now inevitable
but the plane struck and injured a bystanding officer before crashing into a Nissen hut, the barracks for the
546th Bomb Squadron enlisted men

shows construction year as 1946. Mayhe someone fixed up his J-3 to look like an L-4 and borrowed a serial
number from this batch of L-4s and put it on the tail. Current [Nov 2016]
By 1969 it was used for crop-dusting and crashed while dusting a cotton field in MS, and as part of an airshow in
1987 it suffered another engine failure and crashed into trees. Both time substantial damage but no serious
injuries to pilots. It’s now based in TX. Possibly when restoring it to flying condition a decision was made to
make it look like an L-4 and it travels the air show circuits. It is painted with D-Day black/white stripes with the code AB-2.

The airplane collided with trees near San Luis Obispo, California 3Feb11. The private pilot sustained minor injuries,
and one passenger sustained fatal injuries; the airplane sustained substantial damage to the fuselage and wings.
The cross-country personal flight departed Paso Robles, California with a planned destination of Oceano, California.
The pilot stated that the airplane was in cruise flight at 3,500 feet mean sea level (msl). The engine started to cough
and lose power. He attempted to restart the engine, and it ran for about 20 seconds. He then applied carburetor heat,
but the cycle of losing power and restarting for a few seconds occurred several times. The pilot attempted to land
in a field, but collided with trees at the edge of the field

43-4105/4404 North American B-25H-1 Mitchell
MSN 98-21106/98-21405
4105 first flew Jul 31, 1943. Stress tested to destruction by the manufacturer.
4106 was the 2nd B-25H built, and was the prototype cannon-nose version. Taken on strength
with the USAAF on Aug 23, 1943, it was assigned to the 4020th Base Unit at Wright Field.
On Jan 25, 1944 the plane was transferred to the 610th Base Unit, Eglin Air Base
Proving Grounds, FL, and then on March 1st it was back at Wright Field with the
4000th Base Unit. During this time it was used in the AAF testing program in a
variety of tests ranging from testing the cannon, to electronic and flight characteristics.
It remained in testing programs until the end of the war, finally being transferred
to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation at Walnut Ridge, AR, on Jan 26, 1946.
The plane was sold to Joe Zappa/Delta Drilling Co. of Dallas, TX on Jun 25, 1947 and
registered N90399. It was then passed through three other owners before being purchased
in February 1952 by Mechanical Productions, Inc, of Jackson, MI, who registered it as N10V.
In September 1952 the cannon nose was replaced by a standard B-25J 8-gun nose, and a
couple months later low drag wingtips were installed. In October 1955 it was sold to
Husky Oil Co. of Cody, WY, and several executive modifications were made, including
the installation of an air stair and pointed tail cone. After five more owners
the plane was acquired by Tallmantz Aviation of Orange County, CA, in September 1968,
and then sold to Filmways Inc of Hollywood, CA who used it in the 1970 movie, “Catch-22.”
In May 1971 it was sold to Sherman Cooper of Merced, CA, and one year later he donated
the plane to the EAA Aviation Foundation of Oshkosh, WI. From 1975 to 1985 the plane
went through a complete restoration and a standard B-25J glass nose was installed.
Sold to Bendix as N5548N. Airworthy with Weary Warriors Squadron, Rockford, IL.
I saw this one on 8-5-95 at Aurora, Ill.
4108 listed as crash wreck in Alaska. I have a report of it having gone
down in a storm on Feb 18, 1944 about 35 mi NE of Anchorage. MACR 4100.
The plane was on some sort of classified mission. Listed as being claimed by US
Historical Aircraft Preservation Museum, AK. Civilian serial
number N58HA associated with the plane. This seems to have been part
of a scam in which people would register unrecovered B-25s in an
attempt to get part of the take if and when they were actually found and
recovered. Plane now listed as being in storage at US Historical Preservation
Museum at Anchorage. Reservation N58HA reserved Mar 1985 for USAFM

his latest list lists it as being destroyed. Reported
as having crashed near Dawsonville, GA as N96GC Jun 3, 1975
during a marijuana smuggling flight.

4368 (341 BG, 490 BS) lost Feb 26, 1944, CBI theatre. There is a problem since Lt. Moser is listed as
pilot of B-25H 43-4368 on 9 July 1944 and again on 24 August 1944.
This does not match with the information that this particular aircraft was lost on 26 Feb 1944.
Either it was lost on 26 Feb 1945 after being transferred to the 341st BG from the 12th BG,
or the event on 26 Feb 1944 was not a total loss and after repairs it was given to the 12th BG.

4432 (MSN 98-21433) taken on strength on Dec 28, 1943 and flown to the modification center at Fairfax
Army Air Field, KS, for two months of work. From early February through the end of March 1945
the plane traveled back and forth as an administrative aircraft between the modification
center at Fairfax and several other bases, and then it was assigned to Lowry Army Air Field
in Denver, CO. From then on until it was retired, the plane was assigned to several bases
in Washington and California, returning to Fairfax twice in late 1944. On Nov 1, 1945 the
plane was sent to Altus Army Air Field, OK, for storage, and in 1946 was turned over to the
Reconstruction Finance Corporation at Altus. The plane was sold to Joe Zappa/Delta Drilling Co.
of Dallas, TX on Jun 25, 1947 and registered N90399. It was then passed through three other
owners before being purchased in February 1952 by Mechanical Productions, Inc, of Jackson, MI,
who registered it as N10V. In September 1952 the cannon nose was replaced by a standard B-25J
8-gun nose, and a couple months later low drag wingtips were installed. In October 1955 it was
sold to Husky Oil Co. of Cody, WY, and several executive modifications were made, including
the installation of an air stair and pointed tail cone. After five more owners the plane
was acquired by Tallmantz Aviation of Orange County, CA, in September 1968, and then sold to
Filmways Inc of Hollywood, CA who used it in the 1970 movie, “Catch-22.”
Registration N410V was a film serial, presumably mistaken for a US registration. In May 1971
it was sold to Sherman Cooper of Merced, CA, and one year later he donated the plane to the
EAA Aviation Foundation of Oshkosh, WI. From 1975 to 1985 the plane went through a complete
restoration and a standard B-25J glass nose was installed
Now with Experimental Aircraft Association of Oshkosh, WI as N10V.
4442 418th NFS shot down by AAA Jul 27, 1944 in Dutch New Guinea after taking a Japanese brge just west of the Vogelkop Peninsula.
4447 crashed May 29, 1945 on Crystal Peak, CA, 11 mi SW of Reno, NV. Was enroute from Hill Field,
Utah to Salinas, California. Pilot ran into thunderstorms and turbulence over Truckee,
California. Reversed his course, let his speed become too great and the plane broke apart
inflight. A young girl who witnessed crash said engines sounded like they were screaming
as plane sped towards the ground. Outer wings broke off at the landing lights as well as tail
feathers. All aboard killed.
4450 remains noted in 1977 at Girua AP, Popondetta, PNG.

4896 ditched off Guam Apr 6, 1945.
4899 This plane rolled out of the factory on May 17, 1944 and was accepted by the USAAF
the next day. It was then assigned to the Modification Center at Altus Army Air
Field, OK, as an administrative transport. The next month it was sent to Hunter Field,
El Paso, TX, to await assignment. In July the plane was assigned to the 42nd Bomb Group
in the Philippines and was ferried there, departing Long Beach, CA, that month.
However, it was assigned to a replacement pool and never saw combat. In November the
plane was ferried back to the USA and ended up being assigned to the 1st Motion
Picture Production Unit, Culver City, CA. From then until retirement the plane was
first configured for training as a TB-25H, then designated restricted as RB-25H.
In February 1946 the plane was transferred to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation
at Altus Field, OK, and soon thereafter was acquired by the State Teachers College of
Dickinson, ND. On May 7, 1950 the plane was purchased by the SAX Aviation Company
of Dickinson and registered as N66572. In 1971 the plane was sold to a Dickinson resident,
and then passed though another owner until May 18, 1952 when it was sold to William L. Rausch
of Hackensack, NJ, who registered the plane as N1582V. It was then transferred on Jul 17, 1952
to Rausch Aviation of Teterboro, NJ. In 1953 it was given modifications as an executive
aircraft and was fitted with wingtip tanks. On Aug 12, 1955 it was registered as N37L to
Le Franc Corporation of San Francisco, CA. In January 1956 the plane underwent extensive
modification, replacing the wings with those from B-25J/PBJ-1J N5865V (44-30988/35857),
air stair door, wingtip tanks, and equipped it with JATO. On Jun 3, 1959 the plane was
sold to Oakland Airmotive Co. of Oakland, CA, passing to Carrier Services Corporation
of Flint, MI on Sep 16, 1959. On May 7, 1963 it was registered to Grimes Manufacturing
Corporation of Urbana, OH, who sold it to Air International of Columbus, OH, in September 1964.
Golden Isles Aviation of Sait Simons Island, GA, acquired the plane in July 1970,
and they started the downfall of the plane from airworthiness. On Dec 4, 1970 the
plane suffered an inflight fire during a drug run and was damaged in a forced landing
at Simons Island. The Glynn County, GA, Sheriff seized the plane and kept it for over
six years until it was sold in March 1977 to John Hanson of Manistee, MI. He had the
plane dismantled and trucked to Manistee for restoration, but only partially completed
it before selling the plane to the Kalamazoo Aviation History Museum in February 1980.
It was then trucked disassembled to Portage, MI, where it was assembled for display
outside the museum. From 1988 to 1990 the plane underwent extensive restoration,
using a B-25J nose, and painted as the 498th Bomb Squadron plane which served as an
escort ship for the Japanese surrender delegation.

sold it to the Dominican Air Force with s/n 2502 (although other sites state the s/n was 2503,
but 2503 was 43-36075). In July 1952 the plane was purchased by Charles Mathews and
Company of Miami, FL, who immediately sold it to the Charles Babb Co, Inc of Newark, NJ,
who registered the plane as N3970C. In June 1953 they advertised it for sale in full
military configuration, including guns, as a fly-away from Miami; planned sale to
a South American Air Force was not completed and the plane sat derelict at
West Trenton-Mercer County Airport, NJ. The Airport seized the aircraft for non-payment
of fees, and in 1970 it was donated to the Bradley Air Museum (now named New England Air Museum)
in April 1970. The plane was trucked there disassembled and restored for static display.
In 1979 a tornado damaged this plane and most others at the museum. From 1986 to 1993
the plane was again restored for static display.
