Re: Kawanishi H8K2 Emily Flying Boat
Going through some Japanese aircraft magazines recently found I pulled these pictures probably not seen by many hobbyists. It is the earlier version H8K1 model.A couple pictures show the L version modification for troop transport that carried up to 65 soldiers and equipment The Going Home picture of the US captured plane and the last in existence was disassembled and sent back to Japan maybe in June 1979 from what I come up with. I may be off a year though..
