Amen brother.
*NEW* JF-303 of 3 All Weather (Fighter) Operational Training Unit, RCAF Station North Bay, Ontario, early 1950s.
3 AW (F) OTU was the unit that trained pilots to fly the CF-100 interceptor. T-33s were used for jet transition training and instrument flight training as a lead-in to flying the CF-100.
The Night Witch unit crest of 3 AW (F) OTU was worn by T-33s attached to the school.

Okaaaaay... had to go and correct some previous liveries as I screwed up the tip tank textures (wrong style of anti-glare on insides for the era). Maybe not noticeable to some but it was ticking me off so here are the links for the corrected liveries:
CAF 21629, 4 Wing Baden-Soellingen HERE
CAF 21452, 2 FTS, Gimli HERE
CAF 21628, 1 Wing, Lahr HERE (This one also has the tail art corrected to left and right versions rather than same on both sides)
RCAF 21623, 2CFFTS, Moose Jaw HERE
Will be posting same in the 2020 forums.

@jocko417, I really appreciate your dedication to recreating all of these RCAF liveries. They're just fantastic.
I wonder how many static T-33s I could place on airport before it completely kills frame rates? It would be fun to just drop a dozen or so T-33s from the same time period in a lineup at a Canadian airport scenery and then walk around them. Some day when my to-do list is a bit shorter I may have to try that.

Thanks, I’m fortunate that I live about 45 mins away from a T-33 (THAT VERY ONE, ACTUALLY!) that still retains most of the servicing stencils, etc. Most aircraft restorations usually stop after nationality markings and buzz numbers.
‘623 was retired in the 1980s, so retains the “symmetrical/Armed Forces” style of bilingual markings of the time. Also, this was in the era when standardized NATO symbology started to be introduced to help identify various servicing locations for fuel, oil, oxygen, hydraulic fluid, etc. The stencils evolved over time, so I’m always on the lookout for period photos, especially from the early days, and unfortunately sharp, detailed photos are very rare.
