A while back, I was wandering around the Kenmore Air base at the top of Lake Washington. I saw a camouflage painted Otter on the parking area and grabbed some quick shots. More recently, it was operating on the lake with a new registration and Kenmore’s own markings. I guess they have taken it on charge. Not sure where it came from, why it is painted in this scheme and whether it was always the plan for it to be added to the Kenmore fleet but here it is!
Japanese jets have a reputation for interesting colors and, while the fighter units were pretty dull gray, the recce jets were far more interesting. Most of the flying jets I saw were in the blue camo scheme and they look very nice. One the first wave I saw, there was also a jet in green and brown camo. Sadly it only flew once and I messed up a bunch of my shots. The other scheme on the ramp was a green and grey scheme that looked a lot like the old German colors. Sadly, it stayed on the ramp the entire time I was there.
