I usually don't do the more "well known" aces, although it's hard to
see in my collection! Let's see, the "well known" aces I've done
are:
Jacobs (any surprise there?)
Collishaw
Berthold
Raben
Navretil
The rest are unknown, little know, or "generic" markings. For
example, the Nieuport 17 I've done is in the markings of a Japanese
flyer that flew with the French. So, I've already started.
