North American B-25J Mitchell 44-86725 (N25NA) has been acquired by US warbird enthusiast Dr. Brent Hisey. The bomber, named Super Rabbit recently arrived at its new home, the Oklahoma Museum of Flying (OMOF) at Wiley Post Airport in Bethany, Oklahoma, transported overland within four tractor trailers.
This particular B-25 Mitchell has had the distinction of serving with three Air Forces: the United States Air Force, the Canadian RCAF and the Venezuelan Air Force. It was brought back to America in 1983 by collector Harry Doan who bought it after it had been rendered surplus.
The plane has been a fixture of the air show circuit and the OMOF is commencing a full restoration of the craft to continue its legacy of exposing new generations to the wonders of mid-20th century warbirds.
