Actually one of my favs! in Red Baron I...who plagiarized the color scheme from Jean Navarre the Guardian of Verdun! Navarre was flying a plane that he had painted a patriotic and striking red, white, and blue.
Navarre over Verdun in his tricolored Nieuport 11, N.576 When he received a new Nieuport 11 fighter plane, he deliberately painted it all red to challenge and intimidate the enemy in the skies over Verdun, well before his German counterpart would gain notoriety as the Red Baron. There are a few discrepancies as to aircraft numbers :Also of note is the Lewis gun, which is shown here wing-mounted and unsynchronized, but in other photos cowl-mounted and synchronized Navarre with his silk-stocking headgear and red Nieuport 11 Bébé, #872
