Hi ,

    I would like to request an historical Hawker Typhoon Skinpack with the developmental changes in identifying markers.
I know that something like what I have in mind is available , but I am looking for an integrated skinpack as follows :

First        Dark Earth / Dark Green / Sky

Second    Ocean Grey / Dark Green / Sky + Sky fuselage band

Third       Ocean Grey / Dark Green / Sky                    c Nov 1942
              Nose to leading edge of the wing white
              Underwing 4 x 1 ft Black stripes spaced
              2 ft apart under each wing

Fourth     as above plus                                    c Mar 1943
              Rear spinner band black , tip sky
              Underwing black stripes as before ,
              2 ft spaces between painted white
              1 ft wide Yellow Stripe from leading edge
              to trailing edge upper wing at inboard cannon

Fifth        MTO                                              c June 1943
             Sand / Stone / Azure / Black or Red Spinner 

Sixth      DDay                                             6 June 1944
            As Four above ; spinners various by Sqdn
            White and Black Fuselage stripes

Seventh   Post DDay                                        July 1944
              As Six above , but fuselage stripes are
              only on the fuselage undersurface , and
              wing stripes are removed

Eighth      All Invasion Stripes ordered removed 6 Dec 1944   Jan 1945
              Implemented through January 1945
              Many Sqdns had unique spinner colours and in some cases , patterns.

Thanks for your consideration.
