This might, potentially be my next project, with the Alley Cat TT.18 conversion kit.

 

Did the 100 Sqn TT.18s ever have underwing serials across the stripes?

No, just the striped underside.

Hi. As Canberra Kid said the majority didn't but I did come across this staring me in the face.

I was thinking later on, in the latter days at Wyton.

I was on 231 OCU at Marham 75-79, but also did loads of time away with 100 Sqdn... felt that I spent more time there than on OCU at times..

BUT at that time I'm sure TT18's were operated from St Mawgan, I think by 7 Sqdn ??

Only time we saw them was the odd visitor... OCU used to handle all Canberra visitors.

Most Canberra's flown by both OCU & 100 had underwing serials, but I'm sorry this wont answer your question, sorry.

That’s all great info, thanks chaps! It looks like I will be able to add at least one underwing serial then. I’ll have a more thorough look online and see what examples I can find.

 

Need to find the right fuselage code letters too, the Alley Cat set only includes C-X, but it’s an all grey one and I’m definitely making it in standard green/grey camo.
