This is the place where the majority of the warbird (aircraft that have survived military service) discussions will take place. Specialized forums may be added in the new future

What? No blue & yellow variants? Did they exist or was that just a default paint scheme from years later. Kind of a "stock" retro favorite of mine.

Harvards are also interesting but as fellow above said, some blue/yellow and overal navy blue could be interesting.
Cheers

Since Spookythecat posted a picture of a small scale model, I thought I would post a picture of the 1:1 scale.

I am kinda partial to T-6's painted in German markings (swastika and all). I know, I know but when you are in a flight with five or six of them together they look pretty sweet peeling of into a split s. Long live Von Heinz!

Are these profiles for SAMI?
Here it is: a SNJ-4 of VMF-112 based at Magenta airstrip, Noumea, New Caledonia.

Does anyone remember the old CAF shows where the Ju-52, the 111 would fly the show with the German marked T-6 flying cover for one of the European acts? I think the Storch was even floating around up there too! Ahhhhh back in the day!
