North American B-25 Mitchell Medium Bomber in Flight – Low-Altitude Takeoff or Landing Pass

A North American B-25 Mitchell medium bomber banks low over an airfield with landing gear extended, its twin Wright R-2600 radial engines and distinctive twin tail visible against an overcast sky. Introduced in 1941, the B-25 became one of the most versatile American aircraft of World War II, serving in every theater of the war and gaining lasting fame for its role in the April 1942 Doolittle Raid on Japan.
