I thought ‘dark green’ was replaced by ‘middle stone’ on the temperate land scheme in the Med and N Africa (as AB910 mentioned by Mark12)? In other words, once the later (C/C1) roundels had been introduced the ‘temperate land scheme’ was officialy only applicable to Bomber Comand aircraft. Fighter types would be in the ‘Day fighter’ scheme or the ‘desert’ scheme.

Even today I still rate this as one of the best schemes on a modern Spitfire for accuracy, interest and application.

This is an accurate scheme with the late roundels/early camouflage colour combination Mark?

Flood I think the point being made is that the brown painted item being offered in the auction does not appear to be the same item as shown on the first picture with the aircraft complete. There is no question that neither are Spitfire tail units but the item for sale does not even look like a Harvard one!

Yes, Mark, the owners told me the engine was complete and back with them (in an interesting green colour). The restoration shop assembling the wings captions the project as a Spitfire Vc for some reason.

Still, despite all of that, the AFC has some good stuff, and Sir Tim is still going strong.

He certainly is – had the pleasure of meeting the gentleman last April too 🙂

Yes we have to be grateful for the collections and the people behind them that we have got.

Its still a great place to go and the 2004 show was superb but yes there is an element of sadness that many plans did not come to fruition.

Quite frightening to have purchased three AN-2’s and ‘lost’ them.

Very nice, all full size (Spitfires) with 27 or 36 litres at the front. Thanks for posting chaps & roll on July!
