I'm bored and watching the 2007 Steve Austin movie The Condemned on USA and there is a B-25 fuselage shown in one scene on the island where the action takes place. Does anybody know anything about it? Is it real, a prop, etc? Thanks for any info.

Zack

I must be equally as bored, I found this :D It was a full scale prop, not a genuine article. As far as I am aware it was scrapped at the end of filming in Australia

Not bad workmanship for a prop in a B movie. Nice former and longeron detail. Jack if you had that in your back yard I'd definitely come over to play. We'll take turns bombing Tokyo and strafing ships.
