Some people are mad IMHO :mad:. They are just machines, the owners can do with them as they see fit, it is entirly up to them. As I said earlier, if I had the money to operate warbird(s) I would probably paint it in some interesting scheme that had no historical significance what so ever, just to annoy the few people who take this sort of thing far too seriously.
What they look like does not matter at all. We should be happy that people are prepared to spend vast sums of money to keep these old aircraft flying. Somebody stated last year that the Red Bull Sea Vixen was sponsered to the tune of £120000 for 20 shows, and it still made a loss. I for one would far rather see aircraft like that fly, than sit in a museum, and who give a **** what coulr they are painted…
