And notice that Ki-9 has the same logo on the tail as the Boku bomb.

Somewhere buried I have the info on pic #4. I'll see what I can dig up tonight.

It is, of course, postwar, and Kaigun flight crews were used to fly the N1K's to another base for eventual shipment back to the US. My poor, old memory starts failing at this point, but I seem to recall the flight was "escorted" by a TBM.

I imagine the fighters had to weave so the escort could keep up. :wink:

Any photograph I post is free to anyone that would like a larger copy, just email me and I will be happy to send the larger file. Please keep it to a couple as it does take time to do.
