Now We Fly In Winter

Not great art at all, but I like this modified screenie so here it is.

Originally the VVS didn't fly student lessons in winter, preferring to utilise the easier summer months as potential recruits came through the aeroclubs and passed medicals (Those who did well in medicals were 'persuaded' that flying was the thing for them). Of course, after Barbarossa, all that changed, and flight training went on all year round.

Looks pretty good. The one thing that could make it better was either making the jeep either white or taking it ouy.

I doubt the jeep would have been painted white. In all the newsreel footage I've seen the vehicles are always a darker colour (presumably olive green). Bear in mind that the GAZ67 isn't likely to be used right on the front line as such. If you look (and yes, I do know the Russians re-enacted a lot of their real life action) the soldiers advance at a rapid trot alongside or atop tanks, not soft vehicles. In other words, such vehicles were used behind the lines.
