Pre Tavola 10 colour schemes

Dear all, I have a silly question. I bought from La Bancarella Aeronautica Colori e Insegne. Vol. 01. Regia aeronautica. Caccia ed Assalto. While the photo caption and the text are quite "flexible" regarding how many colours were applied to RA fighter planes before the introduction of Tavola 10 sche...

Re: Regia Aeronautica propeller blades colors

Many thanks,
I will wait for the article with high expectations.
Off Topic, regarding C.200 Color and Camouflage schemes, I'm waiting to receive a copy of the book Macchi MC.200 published by Gli Archivi Ritrovati.

Regia Aeronautica propeller blades colors

Dear sirs, I hope I found you well. From my huge ignorance, especially in aeronautics, I was wondering if there was any systematic study on the coloring of the metal propeller blades of the Regia Aeronautica aircraft. From what I can gather, it should be a fairly well-known topic, but I can't find a...

Re: Cant.Z. 1007 mimetica policiclica: 2 or 3 colors?

Thanks Editor, 1) and 3) Planes in these photos seem to me showing a three colour camouflage, not 2, so likely green/brown/yellow from Serie Mimetica; and yes, the lighter color is close to white, so likely yellow. I'm puzzled by the fact the Decio Zorini identifies only two colours on these planes,...

Re: Cant.Z. 1007 mimetica policiclica: 2 or 3 colors?

Hi Editor, many thanks for your kind answer. I don't have a personal opinion regarding the specific colours used on Cant.Z. 1007 planes, but Decio Zorini in his STORIA Militare BRIEFING n°41 Cant.Z.1007 “ALCIONE” (October 2023) captioned the following photos as Z.1007 finished in NC4+VOS2: https://a...

Re: Cant.Z. 1007 mimetica policiclica: 2 or 3 colors?

Many thanks, sadly I don't know Your name, I'm Mario Raspagliosi, from Italy. Your answer are highly appreciated. 1) This point seems to me still quite inconclusive, a 4th colour (5th incuding the lower parts of the airplane) seems really difficult to identify 2-3) I'm not sure to understand if any ...

Cant.Z. 1007 mimetica policiclica: 2 or 3 colors?

Dear Sirs, I'm new in the forum and I'm not an expert on RA topics. I recently finished reading Storia militare Briefing 41 on Cant.Z. 1007 and I had a doubt about the colors used in polycyclic camouflage schemes. According to "Colors and camouflage patterns of the Royal Air Force 1935-1943", compar...
