Moggy Posted April 13, 2010 Report Posted April 13, 2010 Howdy all: I'm born again, having just recently returned to the hobby and have a question regarding USN a/c formation lights -- specifically for the Helldiver. I'm pretty sure I used to know this, but have forgotten. Anyway, regarding the aft topside single ID/formation light (see diagram), what color was it?
ghodges Posted April 14, 2010 Report Posted April 14, 2010 (edited) WOW! I was all set to help you and went running to my shelf to pull out these great plans I have only to realize they are the SAME plans you have up there, from the Aerodata International book! According to the walkaround pic at IPMSUSA.org (yep, one of our OWN!), it is BLUE! Go to IPMSUSA.org, click onto "Walkarounds", scroll down the a/c menu to Helldiver and then click onto the pg1 pics. There's a good shot of the rear spine/turtle deck that shows the light. Cheers! GIL Edited April 14, 2010 by ghodges
