That's a real shame. It made it really stand out amongst the more common ETO colours. Good to see MK356 wearing a desert scheme though.
Loafer for Mr. Da Vinci.

I don't know why there has been a delay with painting TE311 unless it is waiting for a specific Polish anniversary (it's going to be in the scheme of a Polish RAF squadron I heard) but MK356 was already at Biggin Hill for other work so it was decided to do the scheme change at the same time.
