Restored by Pac West. Don't recall which airframe, but it had been on the civilian register in the US prior to purchase by FHC.

They had the original pilot out to see the aircraft while it was being restored, but I think he died before it could be finished.

Also, the B-25 "How 'Boot That" owned by Cavanaugh was repainted in its original combat markings. Aero Trader restored that one.
