Default RE: Historical accuracy???

Exactly! It's not like I'm taking a E-Starter, Beaver or Cessna 182 and sticking a swastika on the tail. Do I get offended by a Japanese Zero because it bombed Pearl Harbor? No, and I live a half a hour away from the Arizona and see it on my drive to work everyday! []

I don't know, I can see both sides of this...and I can agree with what Brent said above also, I would rather not have the thing on the tail if it runs the risk of me offending someone. But at the same time I would think that r/c pilots, modelers and history buffs would and can appreciate a historical looking plane...even if it has a swastika on the tail. I mean come on, do model makers in the film industry leave off swasktias because they are afraid of offending the audience?
