Hi Guys
Decided to branch out as C6 would say:o
Can any of the MOD guy's do a mod to put the more common propeller hub.
Or even better if someone could make this a flyable aircraft ;)
Anyway here is a start and I'll add more later.

Did two versions because the profile featured the aircraft from the right side
and sometimes the units had the left side code as L-FK or FK-L so did both.
I can't find any photo's to work out what the coding norm for the squadron was.

Hi Guys
Sorry for delays but I have been fixing up my web Beaufighter section and will add a lot more skins soon.
I wanted to see how many photo's are actually out there as it's better to skin from a photo.
I'll do a few more USAAF ones soon.
I guess for the USA CLOD users there's not many US aircraft to play! :-P
Actually sad to say that in my opinion the guys who developed the game really made a marketing blunder not only is there no USAAF aircraft there's no French aircraft either.
That's a massive chunk of game users taken out of the equation right there and the extra sales could have helped the developers.
Please wake up who ever you guys are!!
Even if they added a Hawk which could of covered both. Not very savy in my opinion.
So I guess the Beaufighters can compensate pity though it's not a flying aircraft and we need to prop MOD help someone!!
Anyway here is: Beaufighter MkVIF USAAF 416NFS White I X7929 aerial colour photo Gerbini Corsica 1944
PLS note I have added a B version even though a lot of profiles and most photo's don't show the right under wing area the USAAF often had there
markings with star on the upper left wing and under right wing so I have added it for the purpose of historical accuracy!

I did two versions of this aircraft because the profile has one colour dark green but if you look at the photo I believe it's two colour Dark Green/Dark Grey.
The other photo of an earlier one (next skin) you can see two colours.
Anyway I left it to you to decide both like great either way.
Have fun it took me all day to do these.

I did two versions of this because the I'm not sure but the photo looks like it has a partial red strip along the wing root. It also shows two colour tone and does appear to have a white strip along the leading edge of the wing. I guessed the nose section but think I've come as close as I can to capturing most details from the data I have. If you have any additional comments pls let me know what you think. Anyway have fun as they took me all day to do them. I took a guess that the letter 'A' was in red with what appears to be a black outline. I didn't do the ware and tear on the tail.
