Occidental 1/48 Spitfire

Does anyone have a picture, or a reference to a picture, of one of the Spitfire decal options in this kit?

132 Sqn 2TAF FF-F MH 486 in June 1944 There seems a bit of doubt about the colour of the day fighter band and codes and it would be interesting to see the real thing. Not that Occidental are Robinson Crusoe here - just about every hue of blue-green has been seen on decals somewhere and no doubt the real thing varied a lot also. Hoping someone might remember seeing the FF-F picture, or alternatively, one of its IXe squadron-mates. M72

Dear Chris - I have seen a moderate quality scan of decals in a review article. If the instructions have a reference (I doubt it) that would sure be helpful - M72

Ok, I have the kit. Sorry, I lost the notice (if you have one I'm interested), but it is the Mk IXe and the ref is 0202.

The decals sheet is printed by AeroMasters and the ref is OC-001.

If you want an high def scan, feel free to ask.

Well, I haven't any picture of the real one. If you want a scan of the decals, no problem, but is your adress the good one?

I received it, thank you very much, it appears normal Sky colour codes. Some reviewers have made a fuss about the colour but without a picture, their opinions are so much hot air! M72
