Maybe' Paint for Nigel's Avro Tutor.

K3460 was one of a batch of 277 Tutors' delivered to RAF, to contract 195190/32 to meet Specification 25/32, between March, 1933 and December, 1935.

The only reference found is that is was struck off charge to Lundy & Atlantic Coast Airways at Barnstaple; on 4th May 1944 having previously served on the Station Flight at RAF Thornaby, N Yorkshire.

Thornaby was a Coastal Command station, so I've painted it per the DTD360 23 Feb 1943 document appendix 5; "Aircraft for Coastal Duties except PR, Met, ASR and Special Duties.

Upper surfaces Extra dark Sea Grey, Undersurfaces Glossy White (to pattern 1)"; However, being non-operational I have given it the required Yellow undersides.

The 2 predominant squadrons at Thornaby at the time of its' retirement were 280 and 281, both in the ASR role with Vickers Warwick aircraft; so their unit crest's feature on each side of fuselage, and it is coded RJ; the Station Flight code for Thornaby: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_RAF_squadron_codes

FS9 as I don't run FSX sorry.

Feel free to convert for your own use.
