Honduras

Overview

Honduras aircraft marking are the same at [c2e98], [whe86] (which show image with 5 stars but the text refer to one star) and Jane's 1945: blue-white-blue stripes with one blue 5 points star on the white, which carried on the wing-tips and rudder (horizontally).
Fuerza Aérea Hondurena was formed in 1933 as Aviacion Militar Hondurena and use those marking since 1936. It got its current name in 1954?
From <www.scramble.nl> it seems that nowadays the wing-tips markings are gone and the rudder stripes were converted to Fin Flash. See also some images of the "rudder-stripes" era at <www.acig.org/fah_f-4u-5>, <www.acig.org/fas_corsair> , <www.acig.org/fah_t-28d>, <www.airliners.net/209867. The fin flash is made of three stripes without the star as seen at: <www.airliners.net/357010>.

French name for both is "Cocarde sur dérive) - Similar to the national flag, but with one large star instead of five stars, i.e. a horizontal triband of blue white blue with one blue five-pointed star in the middle.
