Yellow Jackets
by
Russell Smith

Yellow Jackets features the yellow-clad Fokker triplanes of Jasta 27. The unit's markings included yellow cowlings, wheel covers, struts and rear fuselages. The lead bird belongs to Ltn Rudolf Klimke, whose personal marking was a large anchor.
The pilot and serial of the second bird are unknown, but the markings are pretty cool - a large "V" with three small yellow stars. The triplane with the white markings in the bottom left corner is Oblt Hermann Göring, the Staffel commander at the time.
The airfield is based on Halluin-Ost, J27's home in the spring of 1918. I modified the layout slightly to make the composition stronger.
