Featuring over 100 different types of aircraft and their many variants, Flying Colours is a fascinating survey of aircraft markings throughout more than 80 years of aerial warfare. Over 1300 extensively researched and superbly illustrated drawings depict a vast range of colour schemes, camouflage markings and heraldic emblem and inignias, with detailed descriptions of each aircraft including the identification of squadron, unit, theatre and in some instances, even the pilot's name.
