White X3 was the Avenger that Future President George H. Bush was flying when he was shot down over the island of Chichi Jima on 2 September 1944. This plane was built by Grumman, and was identical in every way to the Avengers employed by the U.S. Navy and Marines, with the exception of markings. Decals are included for White X2 which was the Avenger that Bush normally flew. This plane was particularly heavily weathered, patched and scruffy owing to an eventful combat career.
