  1. Ok, found it.

    L2963, 7F, from 803 sqn FAA, lost on the disastrous attack on the German cruiser Scharnhorst, Norway, 13 june 40.

    Crashed at Orkanger, Frosetskjaeret, due to fighters (Maybe 109 from II./JG77) or flak.

    Crew Lieutenant Cecil H. Filmer, RN and Midshipman Thomas A. McKee, DSC, RN, both safe and becoming POW.

    L2963 was one of eight Skua lost out of an attacking force of fifteen, from 800 and 803 sqn FAA from Ark Royal.

  2. IPMS Stockholm has only a French ww2 paint range for AdA aircrafts.

    Never build a Mirage 2000 myself, but I've seen on a French forum a guy that was using XF20 for the grey, and XF18 mixed with X2 for the blue.

    The result was very good to me.

    Check this link, Sean.

  3. Got a revell 1/72 GR1, that I plan to build some days in it's 2nd Gulf War colour, with the help of an Hi decal line decal sheet.

    But I also have a model alliance sheet, for a GR4 this time, for operation Telic, which looks very good too.

    But there is something missing in the puzzle:

    I got only some early paper doc for the Tournedos, so, in other words, nothing that deals with the GR4.

    And I don't know of any webpage dedicted to that aircraft.

    So in the end, my question: What are the external differences betweens the two marks, and what about some usefull web references, as I didn't find anything to my liking on groogle?

    Thanks a lot in advance.
