    Steve, it was due to a change in operations. Rather than defence over England the RAF went on the offensive with day fighter sweeps and the green/grey scheme replaced the green/dark earth paint to better camouflage the aircraft over the sea. Night bombers generally retained the Dark earth brown/green schemes on upper surfaces though.

      Ian, lovely work on that Spitfire mate. I will have to try out some of these new generation Airfix kits.

        Thanks for the comments.

        Joe you will be pleasantly surprised. Just make sure it is a NEW TOOL and not just a re pop.
