Re: Hurricane article in Scale Aviation Modeller
One thing that makes me believe Caruana is incorrect is the DG/DE patteren. Both the A and B patterns have the Dark Green (or Mid Stone, if replacing DG) going across the cockpit area. As shown, Caruana's BE225 represents a rarely used C scheme, and I belive that by the time these aircraft were produce, the C and D scheme were not used.
So either Caruana was working from a rare picture of a rare scheme, or else he winged it. My money is on the latter.
The AJ Press profiles use the correct A scheme. I could be wrong, but I belive by the time the BE series were produced, the A scheme became standard.
