Plenty of RAF, German and Americans in 1/48th. But no love for the French. Need early war, 1939 or 1940 Western Front. |

Well, judging from this footage: YouTube link You could just use beret heads on any jumpsuited ground crew. The Armee de l'Air also had a blue varuese and trousers. |

This one image I have is from a French AF recruiting poster of the time. Shows a mechanic in a light blue jumpsuit on wearing a officer type peak hat. link I thought it might be a pilots flight suit but he is holding a wrench. The orange looking outfit is apparently a flight suit. |

Jeff, Thanks for the video. Looks like a beret to me. My back up plan is to modify one of the ground crew kits. Luftwaffe or RAF. |
