Many thanks Dora-9.
Those pictures are great. WP859 is ringing big bells and may be one of the three I got to fly. In my time I can only remember them being in the older scheme noted which I thought was Grey/ Silver dope overall and Dayglow bars. I cannot recall the coloured bar between the 8AEF logo and the roundel when I last flew powered aircraft with the ATC in September 1971. I then took my A&B certs in the T31 glider at RAF Spitalgate around May 1972 and left the ATC to join the RAF in November 72 and by then had not witnessed the changeover to the red/ White/ Grey scheme.
Many thanks all that have commented and if more pics can be found it will greatly help me get together the aircraft documentation. Just received the drawings today printed on three sheets of A0 paper so can start the build.
Cheers
Adrian
