Does anyboby have a good photo of a Miles Magister when being used as a Squadron hack.
Idealy the photo would be 1942-1943 and based in the Middle East/Western Desert.
I am in the process of having some aircraft profiles done and need a reference photo to base the profile on.
I have seen several examples of training versions but am sure the hacks would have been painted in the camo scheme relevent to the theatre of operation.
I have been told there is a photo in Aeroplane Monthly, March 1976, (Vol.4,No.3), p.125. Does anyone have a copy and could scan the photo?
Thanks
Andy

From a photo in a donated album in the RAAF Museum Archive:

If you drop me a PM with your e-mail, I can probably supply a higher res version – If I can find it!
