Mosquito FBVI 143 Sqn Bannf Wing and Seafury FB11/Fury FB10 uploaded

...Beautiful paint on the Mossie...:ernae: (I'm a sucker for that CC motif!)

...and the Cuban Fury... cool!!! What circa these birds?
 
The Mossie is early '45 and was one of the five squadrons in the Banff anti-shipping wing. ETO already has 248 and 333 (Norg) of that wing.

Seafury first production model was '46 and served with the RN front line units through Korea until 1953. The standalone RN skin is most famous because on 8 August 1952, FAA pilot Lieutenant Peter "Hoagy" Carmichael RN downed a MiG-15 jet fighter in air-to-air combat, making the Sea Fury one of the few prop-driven fighter aircraft to shoot down a jet-powered fighter. The Cuban version served in the Bay of Pigs incident.

Now if we can get :guinness: greycap.raf da light man to light em up for us.

You can, or actually there isn't much to be done at this point. These were originally made for the AvH version a long time ago but I can't see why they wouldn't work on these ones too.

The exhaust flames are admittedly far from the best possible solution but they'll have to do unless I find some magical motivation to improve them.
 
Tested on the "land Fury" and tail lights adjusted a bit as John has done a noticably better job with the texture than the original.
 
If they work then I'll upload them as an extra:salute:

Great stuff! The Sea Fury's always been a favourite of mine, especially in the 802 sqdn colours as 155 is finished.

Not a critisicm but is there an alternative cockpit available?
