Red and White Rudder pattern ?

Hi Kopfdorfer,

The picture on one of your links that shows the Red and White stripes on the rudder of the B-17E seems to be painted in the Hawaii Air Depot scheme. I've researched this before building an old B-17E kit in 1/72 a while back and wanted to depict the Royce Raid and ended up deciding on the Hawaii Air Depot Scheme. I must've seen additional pictures. Just cant remember where at the moment.

You can find it at the Mission4Today site under the B-17 section.
