Probably, whilst our Cessna 310 never carried a military identity, this colour scheme was chose by our volunteers a while back & is based on a genuine USAF unit & airframe markings!
Sadly changes to VOC regulations means that paint specs are not what they once were!!

Great to see that our #Tucano #ZF372 has been receiving some great #NAMspruceUp attention in #NAMHangar2 - what wonderful volunteers we have!

The cabin windows are open on our Lynx helicopter as it benefits from a spring breeze to help blow away a few cobwebs during its ongoing restoration work.

Basking in the spring sunshine yesterday was our #Lynx helicopter, which is currently receiving some #NAMspruceUp attention.

Layers of wintery grime have been cleaned off the white fuselage upper surfaces of our Handley Page Hastings four engine transport aircraft that first flew in the Berlin Airlift after World War Two.

Great to see that some more #NAMspruceUp work has been undertaken on our Berlin Airlift veteran HP Hastings #TG517 - we still have some of the more challenging fuselage sections to tackle.

Incredible patience; not quite in the same league but we had 'similar' fun with our #ViggenValet work a few years ago!

Thank you for calling in & for posting the photo of #XP226 There's still some work to do on the underside as part of this #NAMspruceUp project, but that's something for the New Year when it warms up again!
Have a safe journey #EveryNAMvisitCounts
