A C-47 aircraft made in 1944 is seen at Kunming Changshui International Airport, capital of southwest China's Yunnan Province, Oct. 15, 2016. The C-47 departing from Australia in August successfully flied across "the Hump" to arrive at Kunming on Saturday. It's final resting place is the Flying Tiger Heritage Park in Guilin, south China's Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, as a historic exhibit. The Hump, or the "death route" over the Himalayan mountains was operated jointly by China and the United States from 1942 to 1945 to transport military supplies from India to Southwest China.
