Gloster Meteor F8 Yellow training bands


Selwyn

Recommended Posts

I am building a F8 Meatbox from 211 AFS RAF Worksop. The particular aircraft was overall HSS with yellow fuselage and wing training bands, but I cannot seem to find clear pictures of the correct position of the wing banding, what I have found is not really clear but appears to show the bands not continuing over the control surfaces.

I assume the wing bands could be the same as on the T7, but may be wrong on this.

has anyone got any clear references on this?

Take a look at these two links... The first link has several photos, and the second provides serials and numbers for different aircraft. I was researching the same, and it looks like the bands did not extend onto the ailerons...

Also, what kit are you building...?

I have seen these references, what I am looking for are definitive positions/sizes.
