Brat, I always dreamed that if I ever met a Flying Tiger in need, I'd open up everything I have to help him out. Anyway, I don't think the Chinese would have any problem with some F-35s or Raptors visiting though I doubt the USAF would want to risk exposing them to all sorts of possible Chinese radar in the area.[/QUOTE"""
Loved the Flying Tigers, and used to love the poor old P-40 till I saw a Mustang, well actually my first real love affair had to be the Spitfire, LOL! I did see a P-40 in polished aluminum with a longer nose, I think it was an E model, but I initially thought it was a Stang, turns out it was a replica of the Base Commanders Bird at Chanute AFB, right here in Central Obamastan??
As to the J-20, I hope they do fly it before the New Year, since I've joined SDF, waiting on the J-20, Liaoning, and J-15 have caused me to visibly age and my hair to fall out??
