Oh for crying out loud!!!! What is it with you lot? Matt has clearly stated that Tinas new colour was what was found on her! it doesent matter in the slightest what you may remember or what your mate down the pub says the fact is she was painted desert pink at some stage i know this to be true because i saw it with my very own eyes while i was helping rub her down.
What he said! and for that mater what he did since I also saw it with my own eyes while helping to rub her down. while many here where sat at their keyboards being pedantic and whineing while historic airframes rust and rot away all over the country. stop grumbling get off yer ar*es and put your energys into protecting all the wonderful aircraft that have to live outside from the elements. or at least give thanks (and credit!) to those fantastic blokes who give up their time to do so on your behalf. In the case of XM715 John, N, and Matt Walton deserve a great deal of credit as do so many others! lets not loose sight of how important these efforts are to our avation heritage.
for those who might be interested here is a picture from the cherry picker take just after the tail had been painted.
