Nice paints there

Dunno if you noticed it,but on one of those links I pasted before, the undersurfaces of the UK based squadrons were painted silver.

One would presume so,

I haven't been able to find any definite serials (yet) for OCU birds.

These are all the serials for the RAF Sabres

RAF serials for the Canadair Sabres were XB530/550 (21), XB575/603 (29), XB606/646 (41), XB664/713 (50), XB726/769 (44), XB790/839 (50), XB856/905 (50), XB941/990 (50), XD102/138 (37), XD707/736 (30), and XD753/781 (29). One Sabre F.4 (XB551) was procured separately to replace a Sabre F.2 (XB530) which was returned to Canada. The lot XD102/138 was later re-serialled as follows. XD102/105 --> XB647/650, XD106/111 --> XB770/775, XD112/116 --> XB851/855, and XD117/138 --> XB978/999. This ended up causing some duplication of some serial numbers in the XB941/990 branch, which was eradicated by separately having XB901/905 being reserialed as XB912/916 and XB941/990 becoming XB917/977.

I've added wingtip vorticies to Kirk's Sabre. If you would like to do the same, this is what I've done:
In the aircraft.cfg, edit the [lights] and [smoke] sections to read

[lights]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
light.0 = 5, 23.0, 0.0, -6.2, fx_f86landinglight ,
light.1 = 5, 23.0, 4.6, -6.2, fx_f86landinglight ,
light.2 = 5, 23.0, 0.0, -5.9, fx_f86landinglight ,
light.3 = 5, 23.0, 4.6, -5.9, fx_f86landinglight ,
light.4 = 3, -7.710, 18.330, -0.7, fx_f86navgre ,
light.5 = 3, -6.910, -17.890, -0.7, fx_f86navred ,
light.6 = 1, -20.906, 0.0, 2.003, fx_f86beaconwhite ,
light.7 = 4, 7.56, 0.00, 3.7, fx_f86vclight ,
light.8 = 8, -100.0, 0.0, 0.0, fx_f86exhaust.fx <--this light is added

[smokesystem]
//smoke.0 = -100.0, 0.0, 0.0, fx_f86exhaust.fx <--original line dissabled
smoke.0 = -0.75, -11.78, -17.41, fx_vapour_f6.fx <--these added
smoke.1 = -0.75, -11.78, 17.41, fx_vapour_f6.fx <--

And the [Vcockpit01] section of the panel.cfg edited to

// gauge00=F86!exhaust, 1,1,1,1 <--original disabled
gauge00=hunterfx!HunterVapourTrails, 394,738,1,1 <--these 2 lines added
gauge01=hunterfx!HunterEngineFlame, 1, 24 ,25,95 <--

You'll need the hunter_fx.cab from my single seat Hunters installed in the main gauges folder for this to work.

When will yours be uploaded? I'd love an "RAF Pack" so I could remove all of the other paints that I will never fly.
