Thanks Adam. I'll check the tail. I always thought it was red-white and blue from the left.Adam_NZ wrote:I'm sorry to say I have that T-shirtRon Attwood wrote:EDIT: After posting this I got up and went to the kitchen. Buggered if I could remember why!![]()
Just a "quickie" (as it were) ... does one of your tailfin markings need to be reversed? Red first for RAF, blue for FR (not sure which the RCAF plump for - or do they hedge their bets? LOL).
Fantastic looking paint!!
Adam.

You are completely correct. Midnight Rendezvous is a glaring example. After some Googling I discovered that it is red-white-blue on the starboard side and blue-white-red on the port side. Something I didn't know.Adam_NZ wrote:
Having said all this, there've been cases of restored aircraft in RL having been incorrectly marked!

That's funny!!! (smile) It's kind of like the US Flag on aircraft. You can't believe how many times I've seen it improperly flown on aircraft......every now and again at airports on actual aircraft.Ron Attwood wrote:Adam_NZ wrote: Trust the Americans to get it the wrong way round!
Agree. It's got be correct to be authentic. Seen the SAAF Springbok "jumping" the wrong way, both on the fuselage and the wing in quite a few repaints on different aircraft.Ron Attwood wrote:I did a paint of a Swiss Lancair Legacy and the owner had put the Stars and stripes on the tail fin. Trouble was, that he put them on with the stars field on the left on both sides. I duly recreated that. Who got taken to task for getting it wrong?
