I wouldn't do that Charl....That would mean you would have to go to Wanaka and repaint the real thing too.

Anybody care to share the story of the bizarre paint job?

Posted: Sat May 03, 2008 4:01 pmTsk tsk! The idea of the night and white undersides was so that the trigger-happy French and English ground forces wouldn't attack the Hurris over France! Later all Hurris, Spits and Gladiators returned to a sky or similar underside finish instead, and adopted a sky band around the aft fuse. Does no-one on here pay attention to the Wanaka books? 
History, gents, history! I'd post some screenies too, but FS is playing up for me atm...maybe later on...meantime, nice work Florian for persevering! Smart snaps!
