Classic British Flight Sim

Well Done Garry. The more I looked at it after you'd said XA.. the 'A' did seem more possible IF XA160 was a T22 as well.. that's it sorted then ;-)
EDIT..
Garry.. would you be able to confirm the underwing reg's should be LH Back and RH Front too??

just found this shot of a resin model... definately XA

Ben..

How likely is the underwing reg to be XAI 60 as depicted on that model??

Hi Dave

I can't confirm anything about the wing reg as the pic Pete published is all I have seen

I would think it would be standard ...I have seen pics of blue Admirals barges and cammo ones so I guess it was only differing in the colour



Garry

This seems to have provoced heated discussion elsewhere... among model makers.....

Dave,

I'm pretty certain the model is 160 as you say ;-)

List here of 'X serials

Sorry I would have got onto this sooner but I never directly linked the paint and this thread with Pete's pic upload STUPID

Garry

So I see Ben

I found this ref here which DOES show a large gap in the reg numbering so the model could be close on that respect..

Would that be a gap for an underwing attachment of some sort.fuel tank perhaps?

Garry

That is possible Garry and something I'd not considered. The aircraft in my link, although not a T22, is clearly marked with the large gap. Will have a look at Pete's shots again

Dave

Just looked again.it has a dirty great tank there......Gap I would certainly think
