Douglas A-20G #43-9521, "Little Chief" was assigned to the 90th Bombardment Group, 321st Bombardment Squadron during World War II. Its nose art depicted a woman in a leather jacket with a 90th BG patch, her legs resting on boxes labeled "Gin Cairns" and her head on a parachute marked "521". Although combat capable, Little Chief became a well known "fat cat" transport, flying runs between New Guinea and Australia to bring back fresh food, mail, and alcohol for the squadron. Like many A-20s used in this role, it boosted morale while still supporting routine unit operations. The name "Little Chief" was chosen, in part to complement on of the squadron's B-24D Liberators, named "Big Chief".
Designed as a light attack bomber, the A-20 was first flown on August 17th, 1939. © Copyright 2003-2025 The Flying Mule, Inc.
