Di-electrics are the actual transmitter/receiver ‘aerial’ bit of a system

That’s kind of what I was getting at. It rather suggests that the lower nose panels were simply manufactured from a different material and although still painted white, it gives the appearance of being a “different white” to the anti-flash finish applied to the rest of the aircraft.

I’ve given up trying to answer or responding to him Baloffski, I’ve withdrawn posts from here and the Bucc thread because he comes across as seeking answers and then dosen’t listen to replies from others – not good for someone hired to write books.
Good, I’m glad to hear it. What you don’t quite seem to have grasped is that the comments made on the Sea Prince thread were patently wrong. That’s why I didn’t “listen to the replies” as you put it. Anyway, as I’ve asked before, could you please keep your snipes to yourself as they add nothing to the forum.
