This Pack will see an exhaustive up-to-date upgrade at the
SAAF part of the content. Is actually a long process, books are scarse,
but not impossible.
My library needs an update to proceed the work.
-Piet van Schalkwyk's South African Air Force Fighter Colors - Vols 1 & 2.
-Christopher Shores - A History of the Mediterranean Air War - Vol 5.
Sadly I have no luck getting a hand at older SAAF related books, only at auctions limited to
South Africa and the Folks really slap each other for getting such a Book.
Guess I'll buy a Luger and storm a Bookstore there. Joke, I'll not.
All old Skins on topic of SAAF are based on somewhat thin research based on 50s/60s,
big guessing and BlaBla. These Days the Archives are sorted, lots of
Veterans opened their Albums. We have a different picture at some Details.

the Tale of 2 existing TA-Cs
Skins are to be made, I hope a few more, we'll have Squadrons not covered before.
It'll affect additions to other Skinpacks as well, AOI, Skins & Hurries and Piets Memorial Skinpack.
Next to that work, I'll continue servicing the WDAF.
Here investigative work on a Picture from Italian sources.
Allied Records falsely quote a loss report of a MkIII that day, while the actual
picture shows a MkIA Kittyhawk in a unusual late outfit Roundels.
Together with US/Canadian Archives the fate and indentity can be verified.
That's it for news, back to the Desk.
