Looking for a pattern of a B-25 Mitchell bomber aircraft.  If anyone know where there is one I would love to find out if possible.  Swear I had one but for the life of me I can't find it anywhere. 

Please any help would be super.

thanks

My uncle was a belly gunner in one of them.   He patrolled the coasts of South America during the war.  When he came home he gave me and my brothers his leather helment and goggles to play with.  We had them for years and had a great time with them.  Wish I still had them.  Not sure how it worked, my Uncle was Navy.  I thought the Army Aircorps flew them, I don't know. 

 

My son got to fly one some years ago.  He took my wife and I to a war plane fly-in at a private airport down in Calif, that he had been invited to.  Can't remember the detail of why he was invited.  There was one there and they offered my son a ride in it and them they told him to fly it.  One of the biggest thrills of his life.
