Skrambler Posted October 5, 2021 Report Share Posted October 5, 2021 This was a special appearance for the Executive Sweet, which has flown into Sedona five times, previously, during Sedona Airport Day. This year is the 80th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, and the B-25J model earned fame as the bomber used in the Doolittle Raid, the mission to bomb Tokyo four months after the Pearl Harbor attack. Executive Sweet is the same model, but this particular plane flew stateside missions during the war. Al Comello, the local liaison for the B-25J visit, also said this year would likely be Executive Sweet’s last appearance in Sedona. The Camarillo, Calif., nonprofit that keeps the bomber in flying condition plans to donate it to an air museum in Florida in 2022. I was able to get my original, 1941 Coupe onto the airfield for a once in a lifetime photo! There also was a Car Show area, and I made certain that folks remember this very special anniversary that is coming up soon. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
