I meant the real windows not the painted ones for sure.

Is that word you're looking for "vortex"? As in this vid from 1:25?

i'm guessing to get blood splatter like that you'd be talking either arterial spray or explosive shells removing both tissue and clothing. don't forget pilots wore a lot of clothing and, at least in bob, were usually subject to death by rifle calibre bullets. combine these two factors and bleeding out would be limited to soaking pilot suits, not decorating the inside of the plane like someone has been overly enthusiastic with the ketchup bottle. unless you it's a very specific bullet strike area then there wouldn't be large amounts of blood splatter. and certainly not in such patterns as you've added.

Sorry I'm a bit late, but this effect would be pretty realistic in RAF's planes which were shot by cannons, or bombers attacked by 19th squadron. Or flak, of course

Yes, Vortex is the word I was looking for :D

Annoyingly, I can't find the videos on youtube that I wanted to post. :-x But a youtube search of Vortex (or smoke vortex, aircraft vortex etc ) will show the effect quite well too ;)

This reminds me of my childhood......

Me: I want, I want, I want
Parents: You'll have to wait & see what Father Christmas bring you.

Unfortunately, they didn't say which Christmas......

I think that's what the real windows have been made for ;)

Dunno if it has been mentioned before but many of the photos show ground personnel or pilots sitting in aircraft without parachutes on (as they where used as a seat cushion), so they are a lot lower in the cockpit than a pilot suited up to fly the aircraft. When you sit in the metal bucket designed for the parachute you're gonna sit pretty low.
