Voisin Decal help

[+p10ppy]

Looking for info on insignia for the French Voisin units

specifically the early Voisins (3, 4, 5)

 

got a few photo's but not much variety (and no colour)

 

any help would be appreciated :yes:

 

thanks

I couldn't sleep before and now that your voisons are comming along I'll never get to bed,I'll see if I can find anything.

Here's what I found among 8Gb of pdf-s...

Though I bet, you've seen most of it

 

V5

 

V8

 

V3

Russian one

Looks like V3 too

 

Did yoy say Voisin 4? That one's got a cannon on it!

all still a little way off I'm afraid (but getting steadily closer)

Voisin4 (canon) is unstarted but "shouldn't" be tooo big a convert....

 

Thanks Gr.Viper

got some of those but not all

seems they were fairly unadorned, which is surprising given other French aircraft

Maybe its because they were earlier, or just not as photogenic

I looked through English and Russian materials... since it's a French plane after all (and hardly used by Brits or Americans) it might be a good idea to ask about it at check-six French forums.

 

Oh... looked through my links collection (got to update library soon-ish). Check out this one.

Have you tried http://gaubs.free.fr/?

 

I am on my wifes' comuter (mine crashed and is in the shop), hence my search abilities are limited to the backup I can access, but will keep looking.

thanks guys

that sites real nice Sinbad (good descriptions)

 

I think (maybe ) I've exhausted the net...(famous last words)

 

So i was just checking if anyone had any nice book references before i got to carried away with the skin/decaling

 

I think it was christian59 who mentioned THE book on escadrille insignia a while ago

I've been coveting it for a while but cant really justify the price for a book that i'm too dumb to read

Checksix may be a good idea, how are they with dense anglish ?

 

thanks again
