We started the B-25 conversation after I mentioned that a B-17 was supposed to be at our air show turned back because of engine problems. I wonder if this was it?

Very possible. Tried checking the website for their tour schedule but their servers may have been taken offline.

Looks like it was the same group though, based on this article:

As a kid, I would go to the Bradley air museum and nose around. Had a ton of vintage aircraft in a field. Report says that plane steered itself into a deicing tank or two.
