Thank you!

Here's a couple of views of/from my favourite Pitts, N15TA. Not mine but I often fly it.

referring back a page or two, re- distress-signified by flying a flag inverted.

Look closely at a Union Flag (aka Union Jack) you will observe that the white diagonals are assymetricaly displaced wrt the red "X" (but it does help if you can remember if the broader white should be above or below!

Crash one,

If you had been a Boy Scout, you would have remembered!

The wide white stripe is uppermost near the hoist and lowermost near the fly.

I've always thought it would be an exercise in futility to fly it upside down and expect to be rescued. Now, with a Red Ensign (or White in Crash one's case), you might stand a better chance.

It all comes back now!

Imagine the white "X" is solid , with the red one superimposed, -rotate the white one slightly clockwise (flagstaff to the left0 and there you have it1 wide white lower at the pole and higher at the free -end.

now I just have to remember that it's the white that is rotated and not the red

That is for sure. If people don't see us coming, then they really should have their medical pulled

My normal mount, the Archer, before it was repainted.



Sometimes though, I have the privilege of getting to fly this



Or flying in the Archer, whilst accompanying these ...

Boy, I love this thread!
90% of all discussions on here are about rules and regulation while its nice just to talk and SEE aircraft!

Not the best quality but a nice image of me trying to put her down smoothly the other day:




Cheers!
