Pierre Clostermann Tempest Marking


Recommended Posts

Hello

according to Eduard instructions, Pierre Clostermann Tempests JF-E were marked as follow :

 

NV 724 - black Spinner, Lorraine cross on the right side.

NV 994 - Red spinner, no Lorraine cross, “Le Grand Charles” writing on the right side.

 

is this correct?

Thanks

Yossi

Thanks A lot

it is very informative, although still a bit confusing, since the color profiles in the second link do not match (as far as I understand) to the text in the first link…

any way, thanks for sharing

I believe that the second link pre-dates the first, and has simply been left as originally published...

....the first relates to its author's contribution to this definitive article on Clostermann and his aircraft (direct link to pdf download of magazine):

Avions 227.pdf

That article was itself in part an update of this one (another direct pdf download link):

Avions 151.pdf
