Title: 23 Sqn RAF
Post by: FTJR on October 01, 2004, 02:28:00 AM

Thought we needed a Med/Desert schemed Mossie.
Just waiting on some responses to my research questions to tidy it up

23 squadron, Malta, late 43

Suggestions  welcome

Looks very good.  Next time try not to edit the pictures and then we can give you accurate feedback on the colors.  Great job though!

Beat me to it, I couldn't find a pic of a Mossy in desert camo colors.

FTJR, I noticed on the first Mossie you included a 23 Sqn crest, is that still on the second one?  Just that the RAF were prevented from carrying anyform of squadron identification other than their squadron codes.

kev14, good point I was just playing with the pic following the thread about covering up the warts. The "unedited" pic is below

Kev367th, first nice job on your mossies, I had to look through an RAF site to find the mossie squadrons, THEN I had to look through their histories to find who was in the MED, that took a long time. Then another site to find out aircraft codes. A fairly labourious process.

Rep.. I actually moved it to the door. I didn't know about the restriction. I'll remove if from the submitted version, Thanks for the tip.

Thanks.
I knew a few squadrons were in the med, but all the pics I found showed them in green/grey camo.

I got as far as this

Dam shame we can't change the spinner color.

Kinda hard finding ones that aren't just standard colors.
