The Flying Tigers of the American Volunteer Group or AVG. This group was made up of all volunteers, who resigned their active commissions to assist the Chinese in their fight against the Empire of Japan.

The American Volunteer Group - AVG served as pilots for the Chinese Air Force, in the war against Japan. These men resigned their commissions and risked their lives to stop the tyranny of the Empire of Japan. This is the logo of their flying group.

Who doesn't love the Flying Tigers? These men of the American Volunteer Group "AVG" volunteered to fight before the US entered the war. With their Curtiss P-40 Warhaws, they fought for the Chinese government to stop the Japanese attacks on their cities. And the Flying Tigers rose to the call of duty and stopped them. With small numbers and pilots with reputations as hard as nails, this group did the impossible. We salute them with this "Shark teeth" design inspired by the very plane that became famous for it's deadly ruggedness. *HURRY AND GET YOURS BEFORE TIME RUNS OUT! PLEASE SHARE WITH ALL YOUR SOCIAL MEDIA FRIENDS AND AIRPLANE LOVERS*
