This is a repaint of A2A's P-40B AVG depicting Charles H. Older's Hawk 81-a2 Number '68'.
"Chuck" Older joined the American Volunteer Group (AVG) in August, 1941 and sailed for Burma. After training in the P-40 and receiving briefings on air tactics by Col. Claire Chennault, Older participated in the 3rd Squadron's first combat on December 23, 1941 over Rangoon, Burma where he downed two enemy aircraft. He fought two days later in the Christmas Day air battle downing three more Japanese planes and becoming an ace. Before the Flying Tigers were officially disbanded on July 4, 1942, he would add 5.25 more victories to become a double ace with the AVG
