Chinese official lauds Flying Tigers' flight to Guilin museum

Luo Linquan (right), Chinese consul general in San Francisco, congratulates Larry Jobe, president of the Flying Tigers History Organization, on the recent flight over the famed Hump route by a restored World War II military transport airplane. A reception was held at the consul's residence on Thursday. The flight, conceived by the FTHO, was made possible with a donation of $175,000 from Florence Fang, a Chinese-American entrepreneur, and $50,000 raised by the group. The plane landed on Nov 19 in Guilin, China, where the airplane will be on permanent display at the Flying Tigers Heritage Park and Museum. Luo said Flying Tigers was a household name in China and an important part of China-US relations and that the Chinese people would never forget this chapter of history.
