Warbird Digest had the opportunity to document the rollout of the P-51 GUNFIGHTER after a gorgeous new paint job was applied. When the lighting wasn't quite right for photos, we grabbed a few video clips that we cobbled together into a fun video short.

The Flying Fortress is renowned for its role in the European Theater, conducting daylight raids on German military and industrial targets. Over 12 thousand B-17s were built; today Texas Raiders is one of only five still actively flying. Help her keep her history alive by supporting her at https://fundrazr.com/c1jkp0

The Centre of Aviation Photography (COAP)’s was involved with the event, and co-founder, Steven Comber, shared a few of his photos with us, which we thought our readers would like to see.

Aircraft #8 in 12 Planes of Christmas is this PT-17 Stearman assigned to the Dallas/Fort Worth Wing. It was discovered that this aircraft was once used to train America’s first female military pilots, known as the WASP. The aircraft has been in restoration and part of that project will be to restore the livery of when she flew the WASP at Avenger Field. To help get the PT-17 WASP Stearman back in the air, support Dallas/Forth Worth Wing at https://fundrazr.com/31jlL3

Exciting news! The Yankee Air Museum is repainting their B-25D Yankee Warrior, back into its original wartime colors of Ellen E. & Sons! The aircraft flew at least 7 combat missions in the MTO, making it one of the few B-25s still flying with confirmed combat history.
