• There seems to be an up tick in Political commentary in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site we know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religiours commentary out of the fourms.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politicion will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment amoung members. It is a poison to the community. We apprciate compliance with the rules.

Another 'maybe' paint for Nigel's

Avro Tutor.

As I have alluded to in previous paints, four of the Greek Avro Tutors escaped from Crete to Mersa Matruh in Egypt (accompanied by a lone Fairey Swordfish to provide wayfinding), the references show that these four were later impressed into service as HK833, HK834, HK835 and HK853; and there the trail goes cold.

So let assume one of them was still present at RAF Mersa Matruh when the airfield was captured by combined Axis forces; sometime around 27th June 1942 and taken as a personal transport 'hack' by commander of 90th Light African Division.

Inspiration for this provided by David Staff aka DJS1.
