Hey guys,
Trying to find out a couple of things.
1. Did any of these Yak 23s have the national star on the upper wing surface?
The photos I've seen lack upper wing stars, however kit instruction (attached) shows them on.
2. Did either nation use yellow numbers on the nose?
There is a photo of a Bulgarian Yak 23 on display 'yellow 23.' But not sure if that is historical or repainted in modern times for show. I've seen another photo of what looks like the same aircraft with 'red 45' on nose. If it is same aircraft was it originally red?
The same kit instruction is for a Yellow 23 over Red 33. Did they replace red with yellow at some point? Or was this a 'one off'?
Ok cheers
