Re: Pre-War RAF Squadron colours

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the details.

I have profiles of a number of aircraft amrkings such as the Gladiator, Bulldog, Gauntlet and Fury. What I am looking for are the dimensions of the markings. Were 43 Sqn's black/silver and black/white checks 6" x 6" or 7" x 7"? What was the width of 72 Sqn's blue/red/blue fuselage stripes.

Was there a standard size for roundels? Or did it depend on the width of the wing? I know Gladiator upper wing roundels were 40" and that they were all the same style, Type A.

The FS numbers ofr the various colours would be great. I have 3 Sqn's Emerald Green as being quoted as FS14187.

Regards,

Alex
