The Warbirds of Glory Museum is inviting aviation enthusiasts and history supporters to play a pivotal role in the restoration of their iconic B-25J Sandbar Mitchell. This historic aircraft, a symbol of American airpower and ingenuity during World War II, is one step closer to completing its journey—but it needs your help to get airborne once again. Over the years, the museum has successfully collected two 23E50 B-25 propeller hubs, the central part of the aircraft’s propellers. However, the matching blades—essential for flight—have remained elusive. Thanks to the expertise of H&S Propeller, a comprehensive overhaul of the hubs is planned, along with the provision of the rare 6359A-18 blades needed to bring the first propeller to life.
To date, $18,500 has been generously donated toward the goal of $30,000, leaving just $11,500 to secure this vital milestone. With B-25 propeller blades becoming increasingly rare, each contribution is not only a step toward completing a historic restoration but also a chance to preserve an irreplaceable piece of aviation history. Your donation is tax-deductible and will go directly toward acquiring and restoring the propeller. By helping, you become a part of the Sandbar Mitchell’s legacy, ensuring future generations can experience this legendary bomber up close. Donate today and help the Warbirds of Glory Museum reach its goal—because every blade counts in keeping history flying. Click HERE to send your donation.
