DB Lightning XG329

I’ve seen a couple of references to this aircraft claiming that it was seen briefly wearing an overall red paint scheme. Any thoughts?

Thanks for the pointer. Just looked though the two Stewart Scott books but can’t see it. I’ll have to investigate some other books!

Red Lightning

i think in one of the many lightning books there is a picture of the production line at warton or salmsbury of aircraft in a sort of red oxide primer, its a colour picture might be stewart scotts excellent book. otherwise the only other painted lightning was xm169 in the early 1960’s but that was painted black,
