Product Description
Much has been written about the Luftwaffe, but no aspect has been more controversial than the question of the camouflage and markings of the aircraft. In this scholarly study, the author follows the development and use of the many colors used and establishes the links between the then-standard industry RAL colors and those adopted by the German Air Ministry.

Using much original documentation, he reveals how and why these finishes were developed and applied to both military and Lufthansa aircraft-in such detail that anyone with an interest in the subject, either as an historian, aviation modeler or aircraft preservationist-can recreate Luftwaffe colors with unprecedented accuracy. Includes hundreds of photos illustrating the many patterns-and unofficial variations-as used in the field, all reinforced by specially commissioned color artwork by Jon Field.
