chiangmaikelly Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 In Chiang Mai. P40b Warhawk? Yup. American plane, American pilot, mercenary flying for the Chinese Army shot down while bombing Chiang Mai airport. AVG (American Volunteer Group) they got $500 for every Japanese plane shot down. Walt Disney designed the Logo. Some may know them better as the Flying Tigers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

David48 Posted December 28, 2012 Author Share Posted December 28, 2012 Why Thank Yee Good Sir. What a busy life you lead whilst on holiday, hope the aircraft don't keep you awake at night. At night they are less frequent. But there is an occasional flight that comes through about 4.30am and it sounds so low you feel you could literally shake hands with the pilot. .

Tywais Posted December 29, 2012 Share Posted December 29, 2012 Hope there is no penalty in researching for an answer as opposed to memory recall as that one I've never seen nor heard of and I'm fairly familiar with a lot of aircraft. Good exercise though. Though now that I think of it, Convair does ring a bell but that is going back a long way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
