Warrant has already done a few "what if" Royal Netherlands Air Force versions for Piglet's Turboporter. However I can't recall he did this version. In 1956 the RNAF purchased 9 De Havilland Beavers, which remained in service until 1974.

But what if the RNAF would have purchased the Turbo porter instead? So I decided to paint Piglet's Turboporter in the colours which were used on the Beaver. Like the USAF the Dutch used day-glow orange on non-combat aircraft. The aircraft is painted in the colours of 334 (transport) squadron, which still exist today and is currently flying relief goods to the Philippines.

Cheers,
Huub





 
Although the RNAF Beaver's were actually quite glossy, I have reduced gloss a bit in this repaint.

For those who want them, both the fictional Icelandic Coast Guard repaint and this fictional Royal Netherlands Air Force repaint should be available in the library

enjoy,
Huub
