Hi all,
I know I should know this already, but what year did the grey/green/grey scheme replace the earth/green/sky?

Plus as an aside...
I can't see all aircraft being repainted over night and wondered if anyone has refs of aircraft with in between schemes/partly done paint jobs that may have been pressed in to service before completion?

Many thanks
Peter

The Ocean Grey/Dark Green/Medium Sea Grey camouflage is called the Day Fighter Scheme. As the name implies it was applied to day fighters replacing the Land Temperate Scheme. It was introduced for existing day fighters on 15th August 1941 while manufacturers were required to supply day fighters in the new scheme from Sept 1941.

Many thanks Antoni.

1941 it is.

Cheers
Peter
