Got a folder full of stuff here on SEAC T'Bolts, what do you need to know?

Gday jonathan, basically, how weathered do the NMF ones look, which is the correct prop to use on this a/c and finally, did SEAC a/c have the red squares marked on the flaps, I think it was "do not step' warning

Thanks

Most of the pics seem to indicate the Curtis Electric prop with the paddle blades. The NMF is very dull in most pics, almost a powdery-grey finish. The red panel is tricky as in most views the angle is tight and it is difficult to see. KL856 in the NMF scheme appears to have one, but in outline form only. It does seem to appear on some of the camo aircraft.

These aircraft did operate under harsh climates so your weathering is pretty much spot on.
