That’s what my dad did during WWII (C-47/DC3), delivering supplies to China. He laughed when he told me about the supplies, which included, among other things, an incredible amount of toilet paper… :smile:

I did spot a very nice looking C-46 in some of those pics.
Is that AI only or is that a fly able aircraft I somehow missed ?

Honor what your father did
Welcome to visit China if you have the opportunity

Live weather used.
I live stream MSFS on BiliBili.
Due to the length of the live broadcast, I split a single flight into three segments.

that’s Flying the Hump Mod aircraft

Just finished this excellent book. He flew the hump in a C-47.

By the way, I have over 300 hours in the DC-3 flying the hump in the sim.
