B-25C "Specials" Skinpack

Author Jarink
Description There's really not a lot that these skins have in common other than lack of camouflage paint and the B-25C itself. Two of these, "Chow Hound" and "Fat Cat" were former combat planes that were converted for use as 'hacks' (personnel transport, light transport, courier flights) by their respective Bomb Groups. "Miss Hap" is actually a still flying(!) B-25. That's not a typo - there is no "A" at the end of B-25. This was the FOURTH B-25 off the production lines and was used as a VIP transport by General Henry "Hap" Arnold in 1943-44. "City of Edmonton" was operated postwar by the RCAF 418 Squadron and carries high-visibility markings for extra safety in the Arctic. The final plane in this pack is a B-25C that was operated by the 7th Photographic Reconnaissance Group in England. I don't have any other information on this plane, although I suspect it, too was a 'hack'.
