Thanks Knight_74!! Found the book (which is "out of print" by-the-way) at Amazon.com for $21.95 to $26.95. Will get myself a copy. Isn't this Internet the best thing since sliced bread? I just love tapping into the collective mind of the world. What an information bank!

Thanks to all for the input. I later found a site dealing with paint schemes that also listed that as the reason. If anyone knows of a good site listing Japanese aircraft markings with illustrations of Group, Squadron, and Flight insignias etc. I'd love to have it. I'm trying to determine...

Now the kill count makes "cents". Didn't mean to start a brouhaha though; but it's fun to watch the shootout nonetheless. I have to agree with Gnomey though; they seem to be pointless (the kill count that is), but what does a "newbie" know!

I've looked all over the site and can't find an explanation for the "Confimed/Unconfirmed kills". What is it and what changes the numbers?http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/images/smiles/icon_sad.gif Sad

Does anyone know why the leading edges of a lot of Japanese aircraft were painted yellow along a portion of the wing?
