Always thought this paint looked odd mate. Not odd in the sense that it's odd but odd to see UK markings on an American aircraft.

Nice shot :thumbsup:

Ah well strictly speaking I believe the RAF used the Canadian Canadair built ones rather than the US version. ;)

No.. the Whirlwind isn't the same.. neither is the Phantom. I think I need a better pill/alcohol mix :lol:
