Now I remember that WW1 battle ships had a color scheme with
white-blue-black surfaces on a gray background(a bit like a Mondriaan
painting) designed to make it difficult to estimate distance and
shape.

Does somebody know what this scheme is called or where I can find
pictures on the net?

Thanks,
Kees.


It was called "Dazzle Camoflage". Google it.

Happy Flying!

Thanks,

I found some nice examples.
Some really hurt my eyes.
Now I have to do is take some pictures of my plane, take some kid's
color pencils away :-) and start to do art.
Will be fun.

-Kees.

It's called "low wing."


My wimpy looking plane is low wing, a Morane Saulnier Rallye to be exact.

Are there great differences, depending on year, or something? I searched,
and found a rather average looking plane with an IO-540, and I found a
unusual looking plane, radial engine, and very, very long nose and tail.
What is the one you have?

Ok, I'm going to cancel the order for that Me262 right now.
