Thanks DR;checked on the dhc-2 site,RBS/CN137/RBT(140),RBU(142),RBV(144),RBW(146),all had silver /white schemes,which is what SWMBO remembers..-RBU was burnt out after a fire started one night,believed to be by a person nicking fuel ,as it was parked outside for an early morning departure.The other 4 are still flogging around or being rebuilt,from Aus to Alaska..
Army Beavers were all camo`d as far as I recall.
Can`t find any info on Federation Air Serviceswhich may have migrated into Malayan Airways later..
Thanks anyway..Syc...
