VT-CBV  Stinson L-5 Sentinel                                          (c/n  76-3050)

                                 

                                     Something like 100 Stinson L-5s were civilianized in India after WW II.    There were, after all,
                                     a pot load of them used in the CBI theater (China-Burma-India).   Several, like the one above,
                                     found their way on the fleets of flying clubs (in this case the Madras Flying Club) where they
                                     served as adequate, if not purpose-built, trainers.
