Dave, 1st the important stuff (Germany, Italy, France, Belgium, Turkey, Greece & Holland)!

Then we can talk about the rest! *bg*

[+ludo.m54 2,078]

The French squadrons are almost complete. I would like to start USAF skins but I haven't a lot of informations about the F-84F in the USAF.

 

I'm looking for pictures, patch drawings, USAF F-84F squadrons, serial numbers etc...

 

Any help will be appreciated

I sent carlo the Aerofax & Aircam books on pdf ... see if he can send them to you.

 

I also have the 'Profile' series, #94. It's not too helpful, but has serial numbers

Now, the US Air Force :

 

I started by the 81st FBW.

 

The first skin : 78th FBS Shepherds Grove (UK) 1957

 

Ludo

[Wrench 9,849]

remember, ONLY the wing commander would have all 3 stripes on his aircraft. The squadron commander's would have 2 stripes, in the squadron color (like the AdA tail colors)

[+ludo.m54 2,078]

Thanks Kevin, I didn't know that

 

I'll modify the skin to correct that, another question : is that valid for all squadrons ?

Here is a good example of what Kevin is talking about when it comes to stripes.
