Was just looking through Michael's site and came across this:
http://www.preservedaxisaircraft.com/Japan/Kawasaki/images/Ki%2061%20Chiran.jpg
I had no idea it existed. When was it restored/to what standard? Where'd it come from? Great to see, though. It seems like the Japanese museums don't get as much press as European/American ones do, even though they have seem pretty good stuff. Anyone have any comments on Asian museums? Do they present aircraft any differently?
That said, I have to say I like the names of some of these museums. "Peace Museum" Granted, they have a completely different outlook on WW II than we do. But it still has a nice ring to it...
Sorry for the long, rambling post
