Hi Paul, I haven't forgotten... I have been going bleary eyed designing this and other decals, I cut open your Friendship plastic bag to do trial fitting, was up to my arse in paper clippings! Should have it all done for you in a week

That sheet of markings for the F-27 looks lovely. Your work is always impressive. But are you thinking about putting DCA logos over those colours too so those of us who remember the good ol' Departmental days can make something to help our memories along?

I have the DCA Logos filed away somewhere for future use, come to think of it actually I used them on an Aerocommander a few years back , when TFE was being used to rescue Baby Paul's smelly butt she was not wearing DCA titles, the government had just replaced the Department of Civil Aviation with the Department of Transport (Air Group). If you want some tell me what size you require and the next time I do a print I'll put them on the sheet.

Yes please, 1/144 would be lovely. I've found a good image of the DCA crest on the Civil Aviation Historical Society site so if you can't find yours I can probably manage that part of the project. Finding this crest has sent me off looking for information on the Department's HS125, VH_CAO, a project that is not going to be as difficult now as I had feared. So thanks for the offer and thanks for sending me off to do the research too.
