Hello from (what used to be) RAF Warmwell!

[Njaco]

Hi Njaco, ABW, Thorlifter et al - whats the weather like over there?

Bloody hott! We're just sitting here watching the corn pop in the fields from the heat. The best is that the crows think its snow and they freeze to death!

The prop spinners were painted in 'Sky', as were the 18 inch wide ID bands around the tail. This was the standard Day Fighter scheme for all fighter aircraft, up until March 1945, when some minor changes were made. The overall colour scheme was Dark Green /Ocean Grey (or in some cases 'Mixed Grey') upper surfaces, with Medium Sea Grey undersides. The 175 Sqn Hurricanes would be in the same scheme.

Thanks a lot mate - that's been a great help. I've done the outline sketches and will transfer them with 175 Sqn markings. I aim to begin once I get out of painting the hallway , stairs and landing in our house!

Once again thanks...

Lucky sod - it's wetter than an otter's tailpipe here...
