Hi, welcome to Shipbucket.
My source regarding liveries of the L-10, L-14 and DC-2 was: Adam Jońca; Barwa w Lotnictwie Polskim 3, Samoloty linii lotniczych 1931-1939, Warszawa 1985.
Of course color plates there show other (left) sides of the planes.

Messrs. Rhade and Eswube gladly introduce the "Polish Wings" thread.
I joined just to say congrats, and to thank you for your Magnum Opus.

While I'm at it, and since you are obviously the experts - do you have any profiles of the Ukrainian and Byelorussian ally squadrons effectively integrated into Polish service in 1920?

1st zaporozhski air regiment of Army of UNR got 2 Sopwith 5F.1 Dolphin, 4 Albatros (J.I or J.II) and 1 LVG C.V.
The Albatros and Sopwiths at least were Polish planes.

@ZoeB
Thank You for appreciation. "Experts" would be too proud word though. ;)

I have to admit certain "overlooking" of the issue of Ukrainian and Belarussian units in the context of this thread.
Can't say about Rhade (and he's absent from this Forum for 4 months already), but I don't think I have much materials about these formations, especially in form of colour plates.
Most easily found materials are here:

A very good site, one I've used many times in the past.

Included in that picture are a Kosciusko Squadron Oeffag 253, the single defected Nieuport 27, and a Polish-lent Sopwith Dolphin in Ukrainian markings. Plus the usual Don Cossacks, Knights of Malta, Lithuanians, Reds, Whites, Georgians, Freikorps, Ukrainians etc.

Here's a 253 in the original Austrian markings and sworl cammo. Not fine-scale, these are all 1/144 so only 5cm long,

I disagree too.
There is probably more info and historical data and accurate profiles here than in any one book or website out there.

Nah, Mates, You just haven't seen the right websites or (most importantly) books. ;)
(Which isn't surprising, since they are mostly in Polish)

While I know You're expecting more (and You'll get it, in due time ;) ), right now I added only DC-8 chartered by LOT Polish Airlines in 1987-1988 when flights of Il-62M were suspended after crash of one of these.
