In this case the defaults skins as displayed in the setup screens (although these are summer skins) all loaded correctly.
If I can find the time (and energy) I might see if I can reload the game and patch it to 4.12 to see what the go is with that version of the build.

OK found another backup on a portable drive, turn's out that I've got many, many gigs of hard drive space
(and memory sticks) dedicated to IL2 storage.
This build in this case is 4.11.1m and it would appear the same issue as found in the current build also exists here with this one, in that the default winter skins that are displayed in the QMB setup screens are not those that get loaded into the mission
(the G.50 and the Blemheim use the same skin for winter or summer but when the Slovakia Winter map is selected these summer skins are not loaded and instead some unrelated skin appears in the mission).
As I said above in build 4.10.1m there are no specific winter skins for the mentioned types, however the default skins that are displayed in the QMB setup are what gets loaded to the mission, so from this I can only deduce that the cause of the issue seems to occur after this build.
