I have this trivia question I want someone to answer! Answer right and you
get um...10k i guess. Anyhow, the US aiforce used to have all three national
colors painted on their planes. Now they only have 2. Which 2 are they
(easy) and when and why did they change it (this is the hard part!). Post your
answer here! I don't like you and don't want to talk to you unless I gotta.

actually, quick googling tells that the OFFICIAL national insignia has had 3
colors since 1947 http://www.wpafb.af.mil/museum/research/insignia.htm - before that (1942-1947
it was blue-white and before that it was black-white-red or black-white-red-yel
low). Nowadays the national insignia is in monochrome (see for example http://www.af.mil/media/photodb/photos/030930-F-9999X-777.jpg)
they have US flag with all three colours painted on the rudder of the plane
though...
