The aircraft code cannot be read, but the red chevron on the top wing indicates the first three-aircraft section of VS-6 and the colouring of the lower half of the cowling should indicate the leader's second wingman, 6-S-3. The blue tail surfaces indicate the USS Enterprise air wing. Photo by: Carl Mydans / Life

Torpedo bombers from USS Enterprise flying off Diamond Head. A sharper black and white image shows that 6-T-16 is BuNo 0318. This is the leader of the sixth section of VT-6, as indicated by the yellow fuselage band and cowling. The three aircraft of the second (white) section - 6-T-4, 5 and 6 - are also seen and the first (blue) section is in the lead. Photo by: Carl Mydans / Life

BuNo 0517 was lost a month later when its flotation bags inflated during a flight, causing the crew to bail out off Oahu on 31 October 1940. The unit badge confirms the unit to be VS-6, as does the blue tail which identified the USS Enterprise carrier air wing from 1937. Ship 18 has the bottom half of its cowling painted yellow, being the second wingman in the sixth section of a squadron. Photo by: Carl Mydans / Life

KLM's DC-3 PH-ARB "Buizerd" escaped from Schiphol during the Nazi invasion of Holland in early May 1940. It was camouflaged and re-registered G-AGBD and flown by Dutch and BOAC crews on runs to neutral Lisbon and Shannon. Returned to KLM postwar as PH-TBD. To Skyways as G-AGBD in August 1946. From KLM 60 years ago.
