The World War II-vintage medium bomber will be on display for free public viewing from July 18 through Sept. 7.

For those wishing to experience the ultimate trip back in time, the B-25 is available for 30-minute flights around Denver, allowing passengers to fly aboard the aircraft in the same positions our WWII veterans flew in more than 60 years ago. Flights are a $375 donation per person, per flight and up to six people may fly aboard for each flight.

The B-25 Mitchell is best known for its role in the famous Doolittle raid on Japan in 1942. The well-known mission where 16 B-25s flew from the aircraft carrier USS Hornet to make the first attack on Japan following the Pearl Harbor attack has been seen in countless movies, books, and articles and was one of the key events of the early days of the war.

Throughout WWII, the B-25 played a major role as a medium bomber and ground attack aircraft in both the Pacific and European Theater of operations.

Over 9,800 B-25's were built from 1940 to 1945, but only around 30 remain in flying condition today, flown by private operators and museums. Out of those remaining, our B-25, the "Barbie III", is the last flying H-model of the B-25, noted for the installation of a 75mm cannon in the nose and its configuration as a ground attack aircraft.

The Warbirds Unlimited Foundation invites you to join the B-25H Mitchell "Barbie III" in Denver and become a part of our crew and our family; those who believe that history should come alive and be preserved for generations to come. A symbol of the mighty power of the American Army Air Corps during World War II, the B-25 flies today in honor and remembrance of our WWII veterans of all branches and we are committed to keeping the aircraft alive to preserve their memory for our future generations.
