Last but not least, the number 12 aircraft for this year’s #12Planes of Christmas is the PT-23 Miss Micky. Well known Mildred “Micky” Axton was one of the founding members of the Jayhawk Wing. She was part of the Women Airforce Service Pilots (WASP), and this aircraft is flown as a tribute to her and the other trailblazing female pilots of World War II.

The Fagen Fighters Hellcat recently flew for the first time after a 2.5 year restoration at Fighter Rebuilders in Chino. This aircraft was formerly on display at Yanks Air Museum. The Fagen museum should also have an A6M3 Zero joining the airworthy fleet in the near future. Last I heard, that aircraft was getting an IRAN and some other work done at Chino.

The Yankee Air Museum’s B-25D Mitchell 43-3634, long known as Yankee Warrior, has recently undergone refinishing into the original colors worn when she emerged from the North American Aviation assembly plant in Kansas City 77 years ago. The airplane now reflects her true role in America’s history as a combat veteran flying out of Corsica in the Mediterranean Theater of Operations.
