2nd TAF Markings
Hi Kari
If PZ401, SM-B is really the aircraft you're after, I think you're safe in assuming it had the 1945 2nd TAF markings. The 2nd TAF apparently decided to change the markings in early January 1945, and as the Air Ministry didn't specifically order them to stop, they went ahead with the changes, despite official grumblings. The upper wing roundels were red, white, blue and yellow - nothing on the wing undersides. As for the spinners, the info I have says 2nd TAF was changing away from "Sky" colour on the spinners, but I don't know if they were changing specifically to black ("Night"?), however I've seen a profile of an aircraft from March '45 in which the spinners are indeed black. Cheers, Mark
