The painting adventure is moving into camp. The layout will be based upon Nanga Gaat, but not a slave to reality. I am going to enlarge the maintenance shed and include another Whirlwind (with tropical nose) on the ground with some engineers. Any photos that would assist in this crusade would be welcome. A question: it appears that 40gall drumstock was the order of the day and the drums were burgundy with blue ends. Was that a particular fuel company colour scheme? ie one would expect Shell to be red and yellow, BP green and yellow etc etc


Painting the jungle makes you brain dead.
