Like the SAAF Sabre! Michael Dorn (Startrack) Bought a former SAAF Sabre and brought it to a company I was working for to have it stripped down to bare aluminum. He then had it polished out - real nice aircraft!

He decided to re-do something with the paint - he told me "It looks strange to have a black guy flying around in a Sabre with SAAF markings!"

So who had Canadian roundels, the Brits or the Australians?

I'm kidding of course. Nice pics. Love the Sea Fury.
The roundel and number on the right wing of the L-19 are upside down. I've never noticed that before.
I wonder if that was common practice for Army aircraft. Hmmm.
 
i picked the canadian bird dog pic cos i love the landscape covered in snow beautiful.its just like christmas at least i hope thats what it,ll be like this christmas over here anyhow
 
a lot of peeps seem to forget about the sunderland.there was a sunderland that was attacked by a group of ju 88s and it managed to send 4 of them packing.did anyone know the nickname for the sunderland was the flying porccupine?
