Hello,
I am currently on the look-out for photographs showing the College of Air Warfare's (CAW) "Macaws" Jet Provost team, taken during the 1968 display season. During that year the team's aircraft were painted in a unique light grey and red colour scheme, with "The Macaws" lettering in white on the fin.
By 1969 the team's aircraft were re-sprayed into the new standard red/white/grey finish.
Can anyone suggest any potential sources for photos and/or information of this superb scheme?
Any assistance you can give me would be great and would be very much appreciated :)
Best wishes, and thanks for your time.
