Cool! Chuckie news! We were always told they flew bananas but that may have been a generalization based on the fact they were flying form the Caribbean.

It's always cool to see another pic of my favorite airplane!
Thanks!

Good stuff as usual Scott! It will be interesting to see just where S.G. ends up. BTW, did you get me email of about 2 weeks ago regarding the latest B-25 news you posted?

A bit late perhaps, but I really enjoyed the bit about the '17 with Invasion Stripes.

More great Chuckie historic details that I can share with our guests when I'm giving tours! :D I've known for a long time that our beloved spent time hauling produce between FL and the Bahamas, but it's nice to finally know the true details. The story I've been telling our guests was wrong, but that's because I was told wrong. :oops: :x I'll give 'em the real scoop from now on.
