B-25 "Grumpy:" another airplane at Historic Flight, located at Paine Field, Mulkilteo WA. Here is a link to a little history: 
 
 
According to Historic Flight's 2012 calendar:
 
April 14-21, Doolittle Raiders, the 70th and "Last" Reunion
On April 14 at 1 pm, B-25D "Grumpy" will depart Paine Field for Wright Field, Dayton, Ohio, to honor the five surviving members of Jimmy Doolittle's miraculous raid of April 18, 1942. All five Raiders will welcome the crew on arrival and participate in a four day event culminating in a banquet on Thursday evening. Honored guests will include Chinese nationals who returned Raiders to safety and crew members of the launch carrier, the USS Hornet. Grumpy will make the return trip to Paine Field beginning April 20th.
 
Here is a long but interesting article on "Doolittle's raid:"
