It looks superb in that retro scheme, but I'm surprised that the highly risk-averse RAF would abandon the black scheme.

Didn't the RAF operate a pair in Berlin? They were in a dull grey scheme and were used to exercise the right to fly the corridors.

I'm sure I've seen one camouflaged Chipmunk in RAF or AAC service for FAC training or something like that?

Chipmunks were operated in Cyprus for AOP duties during the 'troubles' leading up to independence.
