Alex, note that the fuselage insignia on the A-20 looks just like that of Etienne's AT-6. I just received confirmation from an impeccable source that the color reversal for the middle and inner portions is indeed due to the effects of monochromatic black/white film. The true colors are, from the center, blue-yellow-red. And while this fuselage insignia was in use, the standard triangle roundels were used on the wings.

and an PC-9 from Chad with a Mk 81 under each wing

Many thanks to you too Etienne, especially for the L-39 in Angolan colours.
PS : the rest of the site is also of interest. Many rare pictures (Il-76, L-39 without camouflage near Su-27UB, ...) but also strange things :confused: (J-10 in Angolan colours is particularly a troubling view of imagination)
