CrazyDuck Posted August 28, 2019 Posted August 28, 2019 A lovely study of exceptionally clean design (guess many German and in particular Japanese pilots wouldn't share my sentiment). No wonder it performed so well. Thnx for sharing, never seen this before.

I hadn't! And yes, as elegant as that design is, you probably didn't want to look back over the tail of your Zero....and see that!

(not my photo) Well, at least they do a good job at maintaining, exhibiting and flying these marvellous birds, and are at the same time advertizing themselves through a non-standard and even noble method. If those stickers (which I guess are pretty inveitable, given the cost of the project) are the only drawback, I'll gladly take it. Better to have them with stickers, than not having them at all. 1

You know what would be even better than that? No stickers. 1

Yes, that's precisely what I'm saying. Better to have theirs (with logos) than yours - or mine (not there at all).

None has painted their faces or their company’s logo on the side of the aircraft.

What Red Bull dont understand is they need no stickers. Aviation lovers know whos own it. But Redbull success isnt about energydrinks theyre about marketing.
