Re: Typhoon Photos
Updated.
Typhoon Ingrid (see here ) struck Hong Kong on 18 July 1946. It is noted in the book "Airport of the Nine Dragons" that the eye of the typhoon had passed directly over Kai Tak and damaged the nissen huts of HMS Nabcatcher and aircraft that had remained on the ground to ride out the storm. The photo above shows an unserviceable Sunderland ("R") aircraft that had one of its engines removed for another aircraft.
Date
Thank you, moddsey for the correct date. I found this one, too, at the website of the Hong Kong Oberservatory. I'll correct the date on all three posts.
