The red drones need a bit more tinkering. I'm not quite happy with them yet.

Bruce,
Great job on Grumman's proto F6F!

Not sure about the color of the rudder...I don't seem to have any color photos of this particular bird. I suspect it might have been red?

Thanks.

Here's are some Grumman pics of the real bird.

yep, I didn't see it there either.

I like your North Atlantic "what if" theme. The only thing I would change is to remove any hint of sheen or gloss to the paint as most of the paint schemes used matt or flat paint finishes.

I can't thank you enough for all your fabulous paints...they are truely the spice of simming, without which flying the same paint over and over would soon become quite a bore!

Thanks.

These are awesome.

The tugs and drones are magnificent. I'll be saving them for when I get FSX. For now, my CWD Hellcat will have to look at them in envy ... :)

thanks for the superb work.

Skyhawk, whoever made that model got it wrong, the lettering should br yellow see below.

10887

and their original Team Name was going to be Blue Lancers until the team whilst in in New York saw a brochure for a night club called the Blue Angel.

All of the paints so far for the RF/VS F6F by both Bruce and Rob are just beautiful! Thanks for the fantastic work. :salute:

I especially love the tug and drone paints. Looking forward to the BA ones. :applause:

one other thing the angels used Gloss Sea Blue on their aircraft up until 1958 and the use of the Tiger and the blue colour used is a shade called Cerulean.

So before I start with all the nubering and lettering which numbering on the tails do you want? the one above or the historic below?

10899 10900

and you have the choice of numbers 1 to 4.
