This is a discussion thread for the following file: <a href=http://www.googleearthhacks.com/dlfile7047/Possible-Flying-Tigers-AVG-Base.htm>Possible Flying Tigers AVG Base</a> Kunming, China - Possibly one of the homes of the Flying Tigers American Volunteer Group ("AVG"), the pre-official pre-12/41 U.S. involvement in WWII in Asia. I am not sure if this field was actually used by the AVG or not. Anyone? <a href="http://www.flyingtigersavg.com/">More info on the very interesting Flying Tigers</a>
