Anyone seen anything like this before? looks like a faint Canadian flag on the wings.
I'm guessing it is stamped on by a previous owner? Thanks! Last edited by ATR0PINE; 10-09-2020 at 06:53 PM.. |

Never seen anything like that before, I would think your assessment about the previous owner stamping it to be valid

Blasphemy! Stamping a Canadian flag onto an All American Aircraft like the Skystriker. The nerve!

Seems like residu from a removed decal to me. I've seen leftovers stamps like these on other vehicles that have passed through my collection. Some nail polish remover will clean that right off.

A number of the vintage vehicles sold in Canada came with Canadian flag decals.

Also, the Navy vehicles with the star also had Canada flags. Why not give us the RCAF logo instead so our vehicles dont have contradictory stickers. Also, as far as I know, the Canadian Skystriker did not come with a Canada flag so tht sample you have is a sticker from somewhere else.

I'm Canadian and I feel the same way. I hated buying my Joe vehicles in Canada cause the US flags were replaced with Canadian ones. The most glaring one is the USS Flagg. If they really wanted to cater properly to Canada buu giving us Canada flags, they should have renamed it the HMCS Flagg.

I grew up right on the border in upstate NY, and although people here say I have a Canadian accent,I can't claim it lol |

Thanks for all of the comments! I'll be removing it during the cleaning/restoration.
P.S. anyone know where I can get a parachute without taking out a second mortgage. |
