In Russia, 1943-44 flying an He 111, what colour would your flight uniform be ? I make blue or grey but brown ?????

Depends on the area that you are flying in. There are parts of Russia that were very brown and arid. Why not?

...or white

only if i forced landed would my uniform colour be of importance and at that point would pray i had sneakers or trainers on

The camo on the version I am building is white patches over dark green. So obviously a winter camoflage. Never seen any Luftwaffe brown flight gear ????

I'd have one to match my parachute as they will be worn and used very shortly!!!

If that is the way we are going I would wear a Russian costume (High Rank) and then a Stalin mask...

Actually the Luftwaffe did have khaki and brown flight suits. Trust me I am a WW2 German Memorabilia collector. When I get back home in a couple of weeks I can show you.

I'd dress like a Napoleonic soldier, memorize French. That way, if caught, I could say I had been looking for Napoleon's Army.
