    You mean the green paint that was ordered by the correct spec taken from original drawings ? She will be out of paint at the end of the week for displays at the weekend in her new markings 🙂

    Funny you should say the paint was to original spec its almost the same shade of green that airfix quote as the correct green in some of their raf kits and that is well known to be the wrong green.

    So a new identity is on the cards,just hope they get rid of that awful green paint they used for the camoflage.To me she look almost spot on when she was coded SR-D.The almost matt finish she had really set her off.

    She’s looking good now as the pictures on the duxford thread show so there may be a slim chance she may get airborne next year.

    Langar is a special place for me as my first piece of wreckage came from there but also as a semi keen cyclist i often go to the memorial to 207sqd and spend a few moments thinking of the crews that not only flew from there but also the ones that didn,t come back.
