American Volunteer Group - Chennault and the Flying Tigers - free feature film

[Venturi]

I have obtained and am providing access to a full-length documentary video on the history of the AVG, also known as the "Flying Tigers" of aviation legend.

 

High-quality interviews are conducted with several of the surviving AVG pilots, including high scoring aces and other characters involved by their actions in China and Burma. The film commemorates their actions in the early days of the American-Japanese Pacific War.

 

It is approximately 51min long and was published in 1990. It is barely known outside of a few communities, and cannot be readily found on Amazon or other internet locations.

 

I have obtained permission from the video rights owner to distribute this video to the WW2 simming community, free of charge.

 

The only conditions for download of the full length film are agreeing to make no attempt at using the video for profit, and to use it for educational purposes only. By downloading the video, you agree to these conditions.

 

Here is the Google drive link to the .iso file:

Thank you!

A really good film for the history of that small, forgotten part of the war. 

 

Of course, the bulk of the Japanese army was primarily in China and Burma for most of the war, and not in the Pacific.

AVG "legend" still lives on so I dont think its all that much forgotten Venturi. And its a great video you have provided, thank you !

 

Personally I'd recommend a read to complement it, if someone would be interested in learning about AVG in greater detail: https://www.amazon.com/Flying-Tigers-Chennault-American-Volunteer/dp/1560985410
