Re: FB355 "Mustang", "PK-K"
These Mk.IIIs were camouflaged , Dark Green-Ocean Grey, white spinners & nose band with Sky tail band. There's a photo of FB353 PK-H as such in Nov. 44.
Also a paragraph on this action in the OSPREY "Polish aces" book. Regards Nick

Re: FB355 "Mustang", "PK-K"
You can date them by the insignia; the revised (red-white-blue Type "C") upper wing cocardes were ordered Jan. 1945. There is a line-up of 315 Mk.IIIs, camouflaged in Feb.45. I'd say the unpainted ones were very late- or post-war. FX876 was lost in August 45.
I'm pretty sure FB355 was in the Day Fighter Scheme in Aug. 44, the same block as FB353. Regards Nick
