…these machines really do look good in white, well done to all involved, having seen at first hand the hard work going on over the winter, she’s a beauty 🙂

Would this be the beastie I saw flying over Edinburgh today, heading for East Fortune?
It was a bit far away to see clearly, but looked all white with marking on the nose, under the cockpit.
Nice.

That is such a huge improvement on the Rastacat scheme.

My own contribution to the rastacat photo collection attached. High winds caused the damage and I believe it was the resident panel re-bender the inimitable Smudge that put it straight again.

Gona miss the “Ganja Bus”.
All you Cat fans who bought a “Rasta hat” had better get your money back. : 😀

I reckon this choice of livery is spot on, with its bright white, and bold, simple dark blue/black graphics, it compliments the tinted one piece blisters far better than a camo schme would have.

I remember seeing a picture (in Flypast) of one of these bright white air sea rescue Cats with some rather nice nose art, I wonder if there will be any on this version?

Very clean !
And a stark contrast to the previous colours!
Can’t wait to see her for real.
