I love the weathering on the Spitfire! How many missions must you survive to get it that worn? How worn can a plane get if you treat her well?
It was great to see the Walrus! Is there a hope that she will, at some point in the future, be made flyable?
The markings on the Spitfire is a bit off though. Squadron codes on RAF planes was usually sky (the same light green-blue-gray colour they used on the underside), or sometimes medium sea gray (a somewhat darker, less saturated hue). The serial numbers were always in black, and in 1940 always a single letter followed by four numbers, with no spacing or hyphen.
