To 'quell' your concern for ethics .. 'Nicky's details' are in the public domain and have been for many-a-year! But, it is otherwise a good point for general consideration (for those who are not in the public domain).

If you have a look at the Royal Navy Historic Flight Facebook page there's a photo and video that looks suspiciously like the end result (of the OP, not the drift!). Sorry don't know how to post pics on here otherwise I'd have borrowed the pic.

sol,

Here it is: not a bad job by the look of it, although it would have helped to paint over the extra cabin windows for a bit more realism

Baggy green skins, tick. Yellow Mae Wests, tick. Just a shame that no-one mentioned that we only had white Mk 3 bonedomes in them days

Think the Torpedo had been "dropped" from the crest by the time it became a Junglie squadron.

ST - It was put back at some time later as no permission had been granted to alter the crest - but you are correct that Albion aircraft had no torpedo. D
