Luftwaffe 4 X 4 Flight standards

[Bob Lyons]

Sadly I am not the owner of any Luftwaffe standards, but I love the magnificent detail and work that goes into the making of these standards,

for pure visual impact, they are hard to surpass, and I believe it was a major undertaking just to complete one standard, with a time frame

of about 3 months to complete it from start to finish.

 

The following photos are from examples that have been posted on the internet, I don't recall the names of those who posted them now, so I

hope if any of the current owners see them, they may like to post more photos of these incredible works of art....

 

Kind regards

And being used..... 

And then captured in Berlin in 1945 and paraded in Moscow in June of that year....

Where some still survive and are on display still to this day....

Perseverance pays off, I can now say that I own a lovely flight standard after years of lusting after one...  

 

Cheers
