Photos: X Prize's rocket fest

The 'Pacific Prowler', a North American B-25, was commissioned in 1942 for the Air Force. It flew two missions against the Japanese and is credited with sinking four ships and destroying two planes. After the war, it became VIP transportation and a prop in movies like For Whom the Bell Tolls.
