About The Author

Nils Mathisrud

Nils Mathisrud

With his background in scale modelling, Nils Mathisrud has built up a great knowledge of markings and colours of Norwegian military aircraft. He has shown with his books "Noorduyn Norseman Mk.IV & Mk.VI” (on sale on this website) and "The Stockholm Run" (Awarded ‘Best Norwegian Aviation Book’ and 'Best Swedish Aviation Book’) and many articles in Norwegian and British aviation and scale model magazines that he has very thorough knowledge of the subject.
European Airlines is proud to publish his series of books called "Flaggets heder" (Honour of the Flag) about the marking of military aircraft. In this series at least five volumes are planned.

Boken beskriver farger og merking på Luftforsvarets fly som var anskaffet i perioden fra den amerikanske våpenhjelpen startet i 1950 fram til nye merkingsbestemmelser ble innført i 1972. Boken inneholder 175 profil- og plantegninger som sammen med 260 bilder og over 10 faksimiler og andre illustrasjoner viser hvordan flyene var malt og merket. Boken er dermed et velegnet referanseverk for bemaling av museumsfly, warbirds og modellfly for denne perioden i Luftforsvarets historie.

Boken inneholder informasjon om bl.a.:

  • Nasjonalitetskjennetegn
  • Registreringskoder
  • Kamuflasjefarger og andre fargeskjemaer
  • Skvadrons- og avdelingsmerking
  • Annen identifikasjonsmerking

 

The fourth volume in the acclaimed series on the colours and markings of Norwegian military aircraft explores in depth the aircraft supplied to Norway under the U.S. Military Assistance Program (MAP). Drawing on extensive research and rare source material, this volume offers a comprehensive and richly illustrated account of an important chapter in Norwegian aviation history.

The book contains information on, among other things:
– Nationality markings
– Registration codes
– Squadron and unit markings
– Camouflage colors and other color schemes
– Other identification markings
