Reply to comment by SamGropler in TIL American WW2 airplanes were sent to war unpainted starting in 1943. The polished surface made the planes faster and lighter, giving more range to all planes and more cargo hold for the bombers by PatmygroinB
Would it have been lead paint in WW2? Im no paintologist but I’d assume that that’s even heavier?
