Re: Azure blue
Hi Alex,
AID colour card booklet,
Never actually seen one myself, but apparently they were WW2 colour chart booklets, I was told bit like the colour charts you get at the diy for dulux/crown/etc paints, but cards.
The colour cards were for use by the a/c manufacturers and repairers / paint firms, etc to get the correct shade as specified by the AID , ( air inspection directorate , [think this is right name] ).
Never had time to find out if the PRO/IWM/RAFM/R-R, etc , have any in their archives.
I imagine one would fetch a good price on e bay !!
even if it were a bit faded & tattered !!
Cheers
Jerry
