• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Wow Nigel! ...that's one of me all time favorites...
Isn't that from the Aleutians... I believe Gen. Claire Lee Chennault's kid?
cheers
 
That's right, as far as I can tell - he picked up his father's Tiger motif and used this variation. Looking at photos, it appears as though only 2 aircraft originally carried this tiger's head in 1942 - 49 and 96. This 1943 aircraft may be a third, or may be one of the earlier ones with the current markings.
