Re: 242 Sqn.'s Hurricane's
Hello Bob
Camouflage was pretty simple, Dark Green/Dark Earth upper side, bottom Sky, spinner black. Standard roundels Roundel Blue/Dull Red upper side, RB/White/DR bottom, Yellow/RB/W/DR fuselage sides. Fin flash DR/W/RB. On the leading edges, a fabric was applied to cover machine guns' openings, painted with red dope.
Risky points are two camouflage patterns A & B, as well as bright marking colours as applied by Gloster. Good point is that pilots often changed their aircraft, so any code should fit, of course of respective flights.
Cheers
PS I have droped you a message on j-aircraft. Could you contact me off board?
