  Cool find Jill!

  Here are some that aren’t exactly production ready, but do give a good idea of what some of the designs look like.

  My dad was a fighter pilot for the USAF for a long time. I know that the USAF website has artwork on it that you can download. Most of them are more of the modern patch artwork and logos. I’m not sure about the RAF though, if you’re looking for more of the British side.

  And here are some books that you might possibly find on Amazon UK or something similar.

  Thanks all, appreciate that.

  My client is looking for something similar to what Virgin Blue here use. Probably the same as Richard Branson uses over there I guess.

  I’ve suggested my client troll thru them anyway, he’s got more time than me 😛
