![[Botswana roundel]](../images/b/bw_round.gif)
by Zeljko Heimer, 18 Mar 2001
Triangular "roundel" of light blue - white - black. The triangle points
down, and apparently from the image in Album 2000 it is not an equilateral
trangle.

![[Botswana fin flash]](../images/b/bw_fin.gif)

The Botswana Defence Force was formed in 1977. Aircraft are marked in
the national colors of blue, for the sky, and black and white, for racial
unity. The wings and fuselage use the colors in the form of a triangle.
A thin stripe of blue over white over black is painted across the fin and
rudder.
The image in the book is a triband delined by the form of the tail.
I have assumed that the definition of the form in 1:2 proportions is OK.
