Found this this afternoon, an alternative scheme for X1032.

the description said "approximately 1940", but please note the roundels (without yellow?) and fin flash in late style ("C") so at least 1942, I think.

So I suggested correction there...

Agreed J-W,..... the roundels are later,..... but the description only refers to the aircraft being impressed for service in 1940,...... here is the description "ex G-AEXU, impressed in 1940. Roundels and fin flash are of newer type introduced in 1942. Location is a guess."

This is a description after my correction  , before it was just repeated "date: about 1940". First I wrote post on BM, after while I have noticed possibility of correction there....

Fair enough mate,..... those of us who know our roundels will have gathered that it was after 1942,.......  well done for spotting the error,....
