19 SQUADRON SPECIAL PAINT SCHEME 2008

XX184 paint shop progressIn August 1938, 19 Squadron were the first to be equipped with Spitfires at Duxford and to celebrate this historic occasion 19 Squadron submitted a paint scheme, which was approved after months of negotiations, not only for the funding for the paint scheme, but also for the approval to have a Hawk painted in complete camouflage colours.

On the 15th of April, XX184 was towed to the paint shop at RAF Valley as a black trainer and emerged three weeks later as a fully camouflaged Hawk in the original colours of a Battle of Britain Spitfire.

You can follow the paint shop progress of XX184 by clicking on the thumbnail above.
