"Nothing wthout God" the motto of the German Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen royal family.

And it's a royal decoration too, the King gave it to the aviation or just to that Air Base (can't remember) when he returned in the country after the quite recent regime change

Great MF!

For some reasons lately I prefer the "PF" versions in IL-2, with Vega's FM fix and a dedicated stick ingame setup.

Thanks for the pic, Casper!

Wow, Bizu, you mean that post-Communist Romanian fighter squadrons flew with a Hohenzollern proverb on their crates?

The Royal House returned in the country in 1994 right in the Royal Palace.
It recieved most of the possesions it had before 1947 with the condition to sell most of them back to the state.
Since then the Royal House has a simbolistic activity like the British Monarchy.

About your question, yes and no. They had this proverb but it wasn't actually on the planes, but it was on most of the airbases flags and stuff.
The local AB near my city which was closed in 2004 was decorated with this proverb too.
But this stencil with it was added just on this plane.

 8) If he is acting King, he wouldn't have to claim back his property or?
He was until 1947, then nada, Hasta la vista or how a German Punklady sung:
Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen, mein Michael...
I will send him a paper Burgerking crown I attended last week, maybe that helps a bit,
it's nothing worth 30 Mil € but symbolic.

He managed to keep few of those eventually, like the Elisabeta Pallace and I think few castles.
