French Securite Civile


F-16's from multiple nations, all with black & yellow or black & red in their markings, although the top one is the Belgian national colours rather than sqaudron colours, but the special scheme is cool even if it doesn't fit into the thread!

302nd FS, special scheme tribute to the Tuskagee Airmen


Talking of the 302nd FS & the Tuskagee Airmen, how have we missed them???
I don't think it's nice, you laughin'. You see, my mule don't like people laughin'. He gets the crazy idea you're laughin' at him. Now if you apologize, like I know you're going to, I might convince him that you really didn't mean it.

Yet more!

149th TFS Virginia ANG


27th FIS


456th FIS


Flygvapnet pre-WWII trainer colours:


4FTS Again. Yellowjacks display team Gnats wore an allover yellow scheme, but the trail aircraft had a black tail due to the soot from the other aircraft.  I've posted a pic of Martin H's Hawk whiffs (the Yellowjacks became the Red Arrows) as I couldn't find a decent pic of the aircraft with the black tail, the real scheme was identical.


Just a question Taiidan, have you posted this thread because you just like these colour combinations, or do you have a project in mind?

Awwww, who am I kidding!!!  Coudln't help myself!, a shed load of special schemes!

202 Hikotai special scheme, Nev'll be happy!


And a glut of Luftwaffe special schemes, they do go crazy for them!

JG 33 special scheme, it's more orange than yellow, but hey, it looks good!


JG 34 special scheme


Not sure of the unit on this F-104, maybe someone her can identify the badge?


JG 32 Special Scheme, one of my favourites that I've posted so far, up there with the Tuskagge F-16 & 56 Sqn Tonka.


JG 32, Tiger Meet this time:


Lothar Ritchofen's (brother of 'Red Baron' Manfred Von Ritchofen) personal aircraft, Jasta 11

Some of my own pics:

RNLAF (KLu) SAR:


Civil owned Hunter 'Miss Demeanor', has the flying fist emblem of 891 NAS RN:


'E' Flt 202 Sqn RAF SAR, it's overall yellow, but the soot guard, radome & lettering are black, so it counts!


Halifax 'Friday the 13th' of 158 Sqn RAF.  Another tentative one, Noseart contains red & yellow on the black portion of the aircraft, but cool enough to include:


849 NAS RN Gannet, posted a profile of this earlier:


Tail of 11 Sqn RAF Lightning F.6:


Just for the hell of it a Bohmerland 350 Motorbike from the Prague Technical Museum!


And one that isn't mine that I forgot to post in my last bout, a Hawk of 208 Sqn/4 FTS.  208 Sqn's colours are blue & yellow, I think that the Dragon scheme has something to do with the Welsh connection & RAF Valley?

You know if you mix red and yellow and black and white then take out the yellow and black you get PINK!
So where are the pinkos?

I invite all and any criticism, except about Eric The Dog, it's not his fault he's stupid
