...do this sort of thing, but I wanted a cover picture for a little booklet of pictures I'm making called "208 Squadron in Kenya". It is a small private publication for any squadron chaps still in contact. It is mostly about people, parties, picnics and aeroplanes! Anyway here is my finished cover picture:-

Peter, may I ask why 'Echo' has the letter 'A' in a disc on the Squadron emblem on the nose?
