I used to live in Taiwan in 1957-1958. I was age 14-15 and went to providence English College Catholic girls school. My father was building the airfield north of Taichung. Lots of bicycles and pedicabs back then. What a huge change in that city since 1958. Today I would get lost in it! ...

Ryan PT-22 - Living Warbirds: Steel Warriors
danonguam
commented:
The wings are fabric-covered. The "rivets" you think you see are actually screw heads that hold the fabric to the stamped metal wing ribs. PT-22's do not use rib- stitching to hold the fabric to the wings, like many other fabric-covered wings are. They used the metal screws instead.

No, Kyu Sakamoto is not the original singer here. This song is older than he!
Literally Shina no Yoru means China Night, and I first heard it in 1956, and it was old then!
