Look at RoyRaiden's avatar to see how camouflage really works

A while back I saw a Tiger Moth take-off from an airport. Going on Google maps shows where I was standing was 4km from the runway. I was immediately able to identify it as a Tiger Moth and see its color (bright yellow, which probably helped a bit )

My eyesight is quite good but not the best (16-12) but in Il2 at that range all I would have been able to see would have been a dot.
