Title: Le Spit
Post by: Greebo on November 14, 2016, 02:48:42 AM: Thanks to Lyric1 for finding me the info for this skin.

This Spitfire Mk V was part of GRII/33, a French Air Force reconnaissance squadron that operated various marks of Spitfire in Italy from mid 1944. This squadron shared an airfield and sometimes flew missions in concert with the F-6 Mustangs of the USAAF's 111th Tactical Squadron and this probably led to the adoption of US-style yellow ID bands on the wings.

The RL aircraft had clipped wingtips, but this is considered an acceptable substitution for AH.

AH3 introduced a new naming format for skin files and this made the old AH2 skins submission page obsolete. Skuzzy is intending to update the submissions page when he gets time and when he does I will be able to submit this and a load of other skins I have done.

Can't wait. I have fixed a bunch of errors in my skin files and made some tweaks to improve them. Nothing like Greebo does, though. :bhead
