I'm working on a kiwi paint for the A2A cherokee:



but I can't find what is written on the nose in real life. Something like

operated by
Quantum blablabla

see this pic for instance: http://www.airport-data.com/images/aircraf.../949/949843.jpg

Can any of you guys help?

oh, and yes, I know it is not quite the right type, but I like the paintscheme...

Quantum have been defunct for over a year now, maybe two. Pretty sure KCC is operated by a syndicate at NZWR, not sure if the little Quantum badge on the cowl has been ripped off or not.

so, I leave the text on the nose away, like this?

I think so. As noted above it is now privately owned, not operated by Quantum so I don't think there is any text on the nose at all. At least not that I saw.
