I have a 7 o'clock shot of N6841D, when it was with Bob Diemert. I checked the FAA registry to see if she was still carried for some bizzar reason, knowing that the chance was way on the outside. Anyone have any information on her, serial - other data?
Thanks in Advance.

I believe that is 44-35643 owned by CAF. Once known as "Daist Mae."

Anyone know what B-25 that is at the beginning of the Defender?

Not sure if this fits, but I believe he only owned one:

Just as a small comment it is not an On-Mark Marketeer, but rather a Rock Island Monarch. Two other Monarch's fly, George Lancaster's N6840D and Scandinavian Historic Flight's N167B.

I was going on what I was "told it was" by the guy that took the photo, and had no information on the aircraft when this was originally posted. This is why I put it on here to get the information on the plane, because I knew the Correct information would be provided, which it was through rwdfresno. Thus the correct nomenclature was then established.
I would love to see one of these up close and personal.

George Lancaster's N6840D operates out of N. Carolina and I see photos of it at airshows both in the east and mid- west every now and then. Not with the exec. interior though unfortunately. Neither does the Scandinavian N167B I believe. Think they also stripped out the soundproofing years back.

Here are a couple of photos of N6840D from the registry:
