Excellent work as always, Rodolphe!!

I see someone looking for a job!

Now, lets start posting P-51 and P-47 info. for future releases to look correct as-well!

Seriously, very impressive detailed research.

8. Reflector Sight Spare Lamps

Gosh ! when I'll get back on the ground, I need to ask Davy, the fitter/rigger to have those Spare Bulbs replaced.

9.Instrument Digit Colours Disregard, see post #26 below

Less important details (not significant)


On the 'Oil Pressure' gauge, some figures (120 - 60) and main dashes are painted in Orange Fluorescence colour.
Check the 'Fuel Pressure' gauge (0-2-4) , the 'Radiator Temperature' gauge (60-80-100-120-140), the 'Boost' gauge Etc ...

the 'orange' paint on some numbers/lettering is the luminous paint that's 'gone off' with age. originally this would have been a creamy white colour and early on quite thick/blobby in appearance
of course the 'nightlight' view should make these 'orange' letters/numbers only 'glow'

(at least we no longer have the green numbering of late/post war instruments seen in early wip pics )

spot on as usual with other points

You're right bolox.

A lighter 'gone off' effect (different paint) on those exemples of my private german instruments.

This is an important point.


The glowing Variometer from the above collection.

The 'creamy' digits and needles on the Blenheim IV instruments...









And on the Spitfire Instruments.






I had a closer look on the Hurricane instruments. Although the sun shines directly on the Oil Pressure and Oil Temperature Gauges,
the needle and some of the digits seem to be in the correct 'creamy' colours as well . ; ))





Another outstanding job ! Thanks to the Dev.

turning indicator centre is still showing 'AN' instead of AM (air ministry) in last pic- thought this had been addressed-might be a 'stray' old texture?

centre should look something like this (white lettering was painted over stamping on some early examples- slightly later were just stamped in)
