As we begin our flying season, we wanted to give a little update on the USB ports that have been installed in our B-25 Miss Mitchell from True Blue Power. The USB ports are crucial for pilots to keep their electronic flight bags (EFBs) charged during flights, especially on longer routes and across countries.

They also fit very nicely in the airplane and won't be a distraction to our crew.

🚨 PERFORMER ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨
She’s back! We’re honored to welcome the return of the legendary B-25 Miss Mitchell from the Commemorative Air Force Minnesota Wing to the 2026 Williston Basin Airshow on August 15! ✈️🔥

One of the most iconic bombers of World War II, the B-25 Mitchell became famous for its versatility, durability, and role in the historic Doolittle Raid over Tokyo in 1942. Today, Miss Mitchell keeps that history alive with the unmistakable sight and sound of twin radial engines roaring overhead.

Returning yet again to Williston, this beautifully restored warbird gives fans a rare chance to experience a living piece of aviation history up close. 🇺🇸
