Re: SAAF Beaufighter
Nice job, but it's on the the wrong model.
NV139 was an early Mk.X, which was practically the same as the MK.VIc. You've got the paint on the Mk.VIf model. Also you need to add "OBS" to the title in the aircraft.cfg to show the observer postion with the gun.

Thanks Dave for the compliments and the tips . I will definately have another bash at it taking your points to hand. Was a learning phase for me with doing dds formats, and thanks to Larry for his helpful tips for dds too 
. Was the first of many more to come as after researching the old Beau I found lots of material to work with. So watch this space ;-) .

Thanks for the tips Dave, just shows that the term RTFM still applies ;-) .
With experimenting with the title lines I found out that there is much more to the Beau model than meets the eye
with bigger spinners, tail leading edge, radome, etc.Unfortunately I put the original one on the www already, but I will replace it with this more correct version.
This Beau flew over Italy and Yugoslavia during WWII and was a Mk.X of the SAAF 15th squadron.
