I am putting together a 1940 scenario. I am looking for French Air Force ground crews in 28mm or it's equivalent. Also looking for photographs of same. Pre-war to 1940. Color illustration of working uniform would be helpful.

Here's a page showing the blue vareuse, and the peaked parade uniform cap, plus the blue capote: link
