Photo Comment

Constructed as a B-25J-10-NC by North American at Kansas City, like many of the type this Mitchell was modified to TB-25N around 1952, then underwent conversion to an air tanker with a 1,000 gallon tank in 1959 having been civilised as N5256V. Agricultural spay bars were fitted in 1962 and in August 1980 it made it final flight to Beale AFB, CA, eventually being roaded to the Air Commando Park at Hurlburt in 1995 in dismantled condition
