I think you could possibly scale it to suit the size requirement.

Happened to me once. ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 05:32:39 AM PST US Subject: Yak-List: Re: PLAAF Insignia From: Philip Nicholson Hi Walter TC did to specify the type and dimensions J The details came back in a letter from Ottawa authorising 4call letters underneath the horizontal stabilizer. It also gave me permission to retain the dark green camouflage (their words) and the countrys insignia. I was then informed where the insignia was to be located and at what size. This included the number on the cowling and registration number on the tail. I was instructed to carry this authorization letter with me in the aircraft. I have no idea whether this is a new TC initiative or the product of an over-zealous clerk. Regards, Phil Nicholson (Kincardine, ON) Phil; Interesting. TC certainly does specify minimum dimensions and other details for registration marks. They assuredly do not specify PLAAF, or any other military or countries markings, dimensions, or any other information. Where are you located. I have a "pounce" pattern for the insignia if you can't find anything else. In Oliver, BC.

The drawing needs to be balanced. The left side is more accurate. AAMOF the space between the star and bar could be a tad wider. The distance should be about 3 x the width of the white band around the star. I found this out on a trip to China 1999 when I showed off my CJ-6's paint job in a photo to the museum folks in Beijing. They thought it was very nice but pointed out that the bars were to close to the star. It was a long time before I could bring myself to tell all the DVT guys (whom I copied it from) that it was slightly wrong. Jim "Pappy" Goolsby In a message dated 8/18/2011 3:07:18 A.M.

Could someone please confirm their 'official' PLAAF insignia is indeed 24"x59"? Is this the same dimension on fuselage and wings? Thanks for the help so far.

I will check the dimensions and advise. Appeared to be the same in all locations and too damn big!
