Re: RLM colours please.
And why not... it's a very useful chart...
Please forgive my ignorance, but your location of 05 ON LT 8 intrigues me. Judging from the link to your website, your location is Denmark? I presumed it was a Luftwaffe reference (as opposed to standard longtitudinal/latitudinal) but had no idea of where... Out of curiosity, was there one for my location, Glasgow? Regards... |

Re: RLM colours please.
It is a deliberate teaser. The answer can be found here:
http://www.gyges.dk/reporting_grids.htm under the link LUMA which is a co-ordinate converter. Down-town Glasgow being 55*51*N004*16'W would be 15 WN NM 58. SES |

Re: RLM colours please.
Hi, Amiers...
Well, I'd certainly be able to accept that combination, especially as a sandgelb colour, perhaps RML79 or something approaching an approximation, was used on JG54's Fw190s. Aircraft operating out over the vast expanses of the Soviet Union used this type of colour quite frequently over the dryer, dustier earth-coloured ground, and oftentimes had dust filters fitted to them as well. So, two hours, eh...? I've been at this for 37 years and I'm still asking questions... . I hope you've enjoyed the hunt, though. I can think of worse ways to spend a Sunday afternoon.I've put a link below for you. Perhaps you're researching a colour scheme for a model, I don't know, but if you scroll down to 'Messerschmitt' and pick out the 'F' version, you'll get a really good idea of some of the colours. There's also a JG3 Bf109F in a sand, grey and green non-standard 'splinter' scheme which I particularly like, and is a lovely example of the unorthodox. Kindest regards... http://www.hyperscale.com/features.htm |
