All that PC10 stuff, though with lots of stripes and bands and suchThanks Joe. ‘Colourful’ I’m sure the answer is out there, but I wonder if the German pilots were so confident in the air, they disregarded any thought of camouflage?
I've got a feeling a white fuselage and lozenge wings wasn't enough for this pilot - I reckon he had his batman 'fetch the yellow paint'love the yellow
And the Red Barron epitomises that idea. But it also makes you a big target.I demand to be seen and recognised at a great distance, to strike fear into my enemies! Or something...
A classic. However, I seem to remember from my youth, a proper WW1 aerial combat film called the Blue Max - just checked, it's real, released in 1966.Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machinses
