"THE GREAT GAZOO"
So just because it "looks" better means its the better aircraft?!?! While both aircraft performed well, the Martin B-26 disappeared pretty quickly after the war, that alone has to tell you something. The B-25 remained around for many years in secondary duties. Many people miss the fact that the "TB-25" was the standard USAF multi-engine trainer through out the 1950s, with the last one being retired in 1960.At least lookswise the B-26 edges out the B-25 by a mile. Its looks are that of a mean bastard, combining brutishness with yet a sleek appearance. An exciting plane. Of course I've read about its vices..
On the contrary the Mitchell looks like a boxy bore.
