F-4 41-2217
of the 8th PRS flying over Stradbroke Island in Moreton Bay c.1942. This
hand-coloured version of a black and white photograph
fails to recognise that the aircraft was finished in Haze Paint which
consisted of shades of blue over a black base coat as opposed to the normal
olive drab worn by the fighter variant. Photo: via Peter Dunn www.ozatwar.com |
