Thank you Fraser. I prefer the slate/extra dark sea grey; however, it appears RCAF 422 and 423 squadrons flew the all-white or extra dark sea grey scheme. I am doing AB-E from 422 Sqn.

Launch occurred 29 Nov 2022. Markings are from RCAF 423 squadron. My 1/144 Sunderland is assigned number 80 of 100. The number is out of sequence due to my grouping all 1/144 helicopters under number 75. I now need another 11 models to complete my goal.

That is a beautiful model. The paint job real
Complements the lines of the aircraft. Including the beaching gear is a nice touch that adds to the feel of the seaplane.

Nicely done Lou!!

Thank you Fraser. the beaching gear was necessary as I now put undercarriage on all my 1/144 models.
