• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Just out of curiosity: Are Japanese maintenance stencils written in English, in Japanese using "normal"western letters, or are they written in Japanese symbols?

In my country English is seen as the "international aviation language" so stencils are in English. Ages ago I saw the stencils on French and African aircraft were in French......

The paintwork is superb again :encouragement:

Cheers,

As far as I can say and according to technical drawings & model decals I inspirated from, some marking are in english/western letters and some are in japanese. No idea why :dizzy:
It won't be that visible, as the resolution 1024x1024 and the texture mapping doesn't allow these marking to be readable. However these small details add a lot to global texture details.
