HP Victor K2–location of lights

Another painting-related query all–

Looking to find out what lights are where on a Victor tanker, most particularly which ones would be visible from dead ahead while the Victor was on approach. All going well I’m looking to do a painting of XL191 roaring through the murk, a minute or so before the end of her flying career (she crashlanded on arrival for the 1986 Hamilton airshow over here in Ontario)…

TIA

Steve would like to see the finished painting! I remember going to hamilton airshow and seeing the victor laying on her belly off of the runway.

Do you have a photograph? I’d like to see it if you do and can post it.

Victor painting (and one of a Lanc, too)

Hi all–

Took a while, but finally got digital images of the Victor painting–and also the Lanc one done last year for the highschool anniversary–onto Webshots. Said I’d link to them once I could; thanks to the FP forumites for the needed details you provided for these…
