Dear members, after a few decades of not finishing the few kits that I've started, I've decided to try to complete at least one kit this year.
My choice is the Airfix 1/72 Hawker Hurricane. I would like to do it as one of the 20 Hurricanes the RCAF acquired in early 1939. Some of these were later sent back to Britain in early 1940, along with No.1 Squadron ( Fighter ) RCAF. I want to do it up as one of those during that year in Canada.
Some images here:

What I need is a source of number decals to do the underwing numbers. I am assuming they would be in the same font as RAF numbers and letters. The RCAF numbers for the Hurricanes are 310 to 330. See: http://www.rwrwalker.ca/RCAF_301_350_detailed.htm
Looking through the images posted above and a few others that I have, it appears that #315 was the only one fitted with a radio mast and it is without a venture below the cockpit.
Any information that can be provided will be greatly appreciated.
Chris
