Sorry about that.

The code arrangement on the tail would be the 5 over the a/c number. Not 5 - a/c number.<br />Also was ordered to search for Amelia Earhart, but did not.David Brizzardnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8160546163844864803.post-31056955627322428702015-10-22T23:49:52.537+09:002015-10-22T23:49:52.537+09:00After further research I believe that the Dave is ...After further research I believe that the Dave is from the Seaplane Carrier Kamoi late 1937 or 1938 with a tail code of Yellow 5 and an<br />aircraft number of 1 thru 6 in White. Kamoi was on the Yangtze river<br />during this time.

Kamikawa or Kimikawa Maru.<br />Probably 1937ish. I think they were in the Yangtze area at the time.<br /><br />Others please chime in as I would like to learn more.
