Saw a classic Twilight Zone episode last night.

"King Nine will not return" set in 1943 WWII, where a B-25 had a forced landing in the African Desert (hauntingly close to the real b-24 "Lady Be Good").

I've seen the episode before, but it occurred to me how complete that B-25 was for being a show prop. All the radio and navigation gear was intact, various oxygen bottles installed, ammo storage bins and even the starboard engine's prop was feathered. My guess is they had a fresh surplus aircraft that was ruined just for the tv episode :(

"Twilight Zone" King Nine Will Not Return (TV Episode 1960) - IMDb

*added* Just did a little research and found that the B-25 used in the movie still exists.

B-25C-10NA #42-32354 is stored, disassembled, at Ocotillo Wells and still carries the "King Nine" paint scheme from the Twilight episode (1960) although VERY weathered.
