the P-40 leading the pack is painted with the colors of the original AVG Flying Tigers who were officially working for the Chinese Nationalist government against the Japanese before WWII officially broke out on Dec. 7, 1941
@Edward; The SunBurst on the wing tips was the Chinese insignia in the late '30s earliy 40s. I got to meet Claire Chennault (CO) of the AVG at the Reno Air Races -- a real crusty USMC Captain of the volunteer group SE Asia
