Aircraft Marking

A circle divided into three equal sectors in the colours red, white and blue. At the centre an orange circle with a radius of one fifth of the roundel.

The Koninklijke Luchtmacht was formed on 1 July 1913 as Luchtvaartafdeling and adopted in 1914 its first roundel - an orange ball.

In 1921 a new roundel was adopted (same as today) with horizontal rudder stripes of red-white-blue.

In order to shaw its neutrality, a upside down orange triangle bordered in black was adopted in 1939 with no tail markinks.

During WWII - Dutch squadrons within the RAF (320-322) used the pre-war roundel - while in the East - Indies and the Antilles, a national flag was used on the fuselage, wings and tail (so say [c2e98]).

In 1945 - the current roundel was adopted. [c2e98] report also the national flag as fin flash, but it seems that it is not done anymore.

Naval air arm use the same roundel with inscription.
