Re: Whitley of No.10 OTU

Ruy and Alex,

Thanks for your comments. Why a possibility the spinners were red ? Whitley is painted by dull Night black colour. It has a little bit different tint than „normal“ black on b/w photos. When I search the picture in detail the spinners´ colour look similar to colour of codes, s/n and centre of badge. So Dull Red / Insignia Red. However it can be (is) light delusion. A combination - red spinner for black (Night) fuselage was used. Look on difference bewteen black blades and the black ?? spinners also. I´am not No.10 OTU expert so the question if red spinner could be Flight colour interests me also.

Michal
