IDF P-51d paint colors.

This blog is mostly a reference sort for me.  I don't have  many people reading.  This is why the blog is a little goofy in what I post.   Years ago a did a IDF P-51d using what I thought where the correct paints.   Found this a while back only to misplace  the information. Here it is that least I can find it now.

Aviation Archaeology site

By accident I found this great site.  The blog is run by a group of English aviation Archaeologists.  It is amazing what they have found and uncovered over the years.  It is worth the time to stop by read the articles.
