A question

As I said in the first post, the picture is taken at K13 Suwon Korea. (Yes the scenery Ian did....)



Before I posted my question here I went over this wiki page as well (and looked at all the unit badges, shown and not shown in this article).

The units mentioned were units stationed in Korea. But you of course also had aircraft which just delivered supplies. The MATS aircraft for instance are not in this list.

Cheers,

From what I read, MATS only delivered to one airfield, ( Seoul?) , and the in theatre units distributed elsewhere, something to do with a er, falling out between 2 generals

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, ideas, views and comments. I learned a lot again, but still didn't really find the answer to my question. I thought it would make a nice colourful livery for Manfred Jahn's C-47. But luckily there are enough alternative models to fly in Korea and to be honest my to do list is already far to long! :biggrin-new:

That can happen and its part of the fun in this hobby. :playful:

Back when I was making some B-52H repaints (zip file alphasim-b-52hx4plus.zip ), I wanted to do an "as generic as possible" B-52H in the early-to- mid 1970's "SIOP" camo.
I settled on a very generic "H" that was used in a 1980 PSA-type film called "SAC: The Global Shield" (you can watch it on YouTube) and wound up looking up the tail number, 0017.

As it turned out, there were TWO B-52s with the same tail number at the same time, A B-52G and a B-52H. The Air Force ordered both planes in the same year (FY 1960), they were just different models. :dizzy:

So, there's NO way this could be accurate. Right? It would be a logistical nightmare keeping track of both planes. Right?

Nope, that was just how the USAF did things. :playful:
