Re: Livery of a 23 squadron mosquito in jan. 1944

OK, found Freeman (exactly where it should have been, of course) and the printing is greener than I remembered. The book also has two in-flight photos of these aircraft showing standard intruder colours.

I still reckon the DG faded to brown - sometimes - but this does give the modeller options for a fresh or well-used scheme. The photos are Mk.IIs and the example mentioned is a Mk.VI, so probably still in fresh-ish colours?
