History:
Painted as 43-27493 completed 140 missions during WW2. Presumed scrapped after the war.

"Miss Mitchell" is the pristine example of what a dedicated group of volunteers can accomplish.

The aircraft was a donation to the Minnesota Wing in the 1980's. Volunteers immediately began a complete ground-up restoration of this versatile medium bomber.

Made famous in 1942 by the famous Doolittle Raid on Tokyo, Miss Mitchell made her maiden flight exactly 50 years later on April 16, 1992 and has been attending air shows and educating adults and youth equally ever since.
