Van's Luftwaffe is here! It's an actual paint job from an Fw-190. I just thought it was time for a bad guy to chase around with all the P-51 look-a-likes out there. Based at KPLR. Joel McMillian N880JM.![]()
I also have a fairly large collection of books with Luftwaffe paint jobs , so if anybody likes what I did with my 8 and wants to join the "Dark Side" aka Vans Luftwaffe ,let me know ,I'll be more than happy to help with research or anything else. Joel Mc![]()

Hey Black 8, did you see Ken Dominy's RAF Spitfire inspired RV-8 on the front page?

You now have yet another proper adversary![]()
I've seen a couple of RV's with this type of exhaust. Does anyone have any info on them? I'd be very interested in doing the same, as I'm planning a warbird paint scheme.
Jim ,the ones I've seen have been airbrushed on.You could possibly also have them done by a graphics shop and stick them on. My suggestion would be to go to Sun-n-Fun or OSH and hope someone shows up that has them. I've taken some pictures of them along with painted on guns at S-n-F so I'll look for them and post them or send them to you. Joel McMillian
Brilliant! It looks absolutely fantastic. I love the paint!I finally flew Black 8 for the first time today. So watch out all you RV-51 guys I'm offically on patrol!
