The museum's B-25 now has the top turret installed along with the top turret glass dome, The whole inside of the aircraft has been striped and repainted, and rewired. The glass nose has been installed but not finished, glass and frame work need to be installed, also the props are now finished and painted black (they look great without the polish) and are on the aircraft. I am told the aircraft will be painted in green with gray belly. Some people think it is to be tan but thats wrong, it never served in North Africa but Italy. The crew say's they will be flying this summer, and paint the aircraft this winter, but I would say the paint job this winter (that will be doon in Godrich Canada) and flying about next year.
hope this helps,
Michael
