simon king Posted May 24, 2016 Share Posted May 24, 2016 Wonder whether the car being painted in camouflage colours at RAF Aldergrove in 1939/40 belongs to one of the pilots, has been impressed or has been "donated to the war effort"- see 2.21 onwards. Useful in showing the process adopted to lay out the patterns. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-northern-ireland-26818893 Don't you just love the wartime Health and Safety standards...................

RAFMT Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 This will be the pre-regulation "let's paint it like an aircraft" period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ted angus Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Good Morning Bryan; did you ever get a chance to delve into the N series of AMOs ? We know all published research sights AMO A618 /41 Dated 7 Aug 1941 as the formal start of camouflaging RAF MT in the UK. but I have a copy of AMO N629/41 dated 5 june 1941 which calls for cam of impressed vehicles but not to include hire vehicles. regards TED Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RAFMT Posted May 27, 2016 Share Posted May 27, 2016 Alas, I've not yet found the time Ted. I have N629/41 as the earliest camouflage reference on my spreadsheet so i shall start then and work backwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
