What a difference a repaint makes

Kind regards

Cheers John, I saw this on another site too, I may be be being picky, but I have never seen an RAF serial (not Sqn codes) either side of the roundel :think:

I agree with Trev; that serial number lay out is wrong, surely :k: ...

Well the repaint itself is true to life:

Whether the real scheme is accurate is another matter! Not that I'm at all bothered about the accuracy of the serial placement...

That explains it...An old Swiss one, civilian owned and painted. Trev is right, it would not have had the reg either side of the roundel in the RAF.

Depends how realistic you want it as well as your interpretation of realistic I suppose

It is accurate to how the real aircraft is painted so what do you do.. paint it as it should be or paint it as it is :think:

Nice job all the same
