Dora-9 & CoffmanStarter, as I stated in my post, I know that '671' had never been RCAF but I didn't want this to turn in to a thread about Chippie variations - there are so many! All I was trying to highlight was that it is the
only Chippie I have ever seen that
doesn't have a black cockpit.
".... what were the Shuttleworth people thinking?" Exactly! As I wrote, "I suspect the scheme was chosen for being bright and attractive?" It looks nice against a green airfield perhaps? Who knows? There are so many pleasant enough RAF schemes to choose from (some slightly out of the ordinary) that it is a mystery.
