AIRCRAFT COLOURS AND MARKINGS OF THE FIRST
WORLD WAR ERA
No.12 Sqn RFC/RAF
No.12 Sqn initially used a stripe along the upper longeron of their aircraft,
this was later supplemented by a second one just above the bottom longeron.
The aircraft below show how this was not always followed in the field
as can be seen by having the stripe only along the bottom longeron!
