NORTH AMERICAN B-25 MITCHELL

Titles: North American B-25 Mitchell No’s 1 to 6

These titles contain the flight manuals for the North-American B-25 Mitchell. Designed to a US Army requirement for a twin-engined attack bomber, the B-25 first flew in 1939. Famous as the aircraft used by General Doolittle for his raid on Tokyo in 1942, the B-25 was produced in numerous variants and was supplied to many foreign air arms.

We offer six titles covering various models of the Mitchell, including manufacturer’s publications, postwar variants, RAF and RCAF variants. Each title costs US$9.95. All files have been scanned from the original flight manuals and retain any colour pages.
