Theres two different versions of this aircraft , Weathered & Unweathered each version has Marked, No Insignias ,Unmarked, six skins in total.....The Excellent Template is by Jesters-ink (many thanks)........Bright finished..........Buglord :)

Skin Pack of Boston MkIII's (A20C) flown by No88 Sqn RAF as part of Operation Starkey.
The aircraft were standard RAF/USAAF colours (Dark RAF Green in this case) with black and white bars extending from roughly the centre of the wing to its tips.
The white nose weas added to twin engined aircraft ony to aid identification.
 
Six skins included, RH-E/F/R/S, one with RAF Rounds and one with RAF tail bars only.
 
Thx go again to Imme, Monguse and Starchilde for the templates that I have mixed and matched.
Thx also to mdatelmi for info on 'Starkey' aircraft.

Spitfire TD248
 
This skin is for the above mentioned aircraft and though we don't have a MKXVI Spitfire in the game the real plane closely resembles the MKIX that we do have access to so this is what I chose to use.
I finished this a while ago and something about it was really annoying to me - the real plane has a bubble canopy (which we don't have access to in the game) so after a week or so I decided to see if I could make the skin "look" like it has a bubble canopy - it turned out reasonably well so I'm now happy to share it.
 
This skin has been built to be used for the Mk.IX varients - it should fit them all except for the clipped wings as the lower wing roundels will get cut in half if you use it on them.
Sub note: this skin may also fit the MKVb varients (not Vc) with little difference so you may as well try it in those folders as well.
 
This skin was built using Fly By Shooters awesome MKVb template which I have adapted to fit the MKIX and added a few bits and bobs of my own.
 
 
Spitfire RN201
 
This skin is for the above mentioned aircraft and though we don't have a MKXIVe Spitfire in the game the real plane closely resembles the MKVIII (CW version) that we do have access to so this is what I chose to use. The only real difference in how it looks physically is that the real plane has a 5 bladed prop whereas we only have the use of 4 and also the real plane (having a Griffon engine) has distinctive raised elongated bulges just above the overhead valves which I have tried to fake onto the actual skin.
 
Stick this in your "SpitfireMkVIIICLP" skin folder and you are ready to go - note that it will more than likely fit the standard MKVIII as well so you may as well put it in that folder too. No Markings version included.

Note to any skinners that have ever skinned a MK.IX - think for a second how much frustration I went through to get that red line along the fuselage of the TD248 skin lol.

Serial #: MV293 & Mv268
Model: FR Mk. XIV
Status: Airworthy
 
These skins are for the above mentioned aircrafts and though we don't have a MKXIV Spitfire in the game the real plane closely resembles the MKVIII (CW version) that we do have access to so this is what I chose to use. The only real difference in how it looks physically is that the real plane (having a Griffon engine) has distinctive raised elongated bulges just above the overhead valves which I have tried to fake onto the actual skin. The real plane also has a bubble canopy which I have also tried to fake onto the skin - it's not perfect as it's just not possible but from the right angle it works well enough.
 
Stick these in your "SpitfireMkVIIICLP" skin folder and you are ready to go - note that they will more than likely fit the standard MKVIII as well so you may as well put it in that folder too.

FW190A-4. 2./JG54 Skin Pack Winter 1943. I have used Jesters Excellent Template. Theres weathered & non weathered versions so theres 8 skins of each version ,16 skins in total. Bright finished....Buglord :)

Two Seafire IIC (L III), MB244/6-Q and MB229 6-H flown by 899 Naval Air Squadron from HMS Indomitable from Scarpa Flow (Shetland Isles) as part of the British Home Fleet in June 1943.
Both A/C have the fuselage stengthening beams fitted for the forward cockpit bulkhead to the radio compartment, and the wing strengtheners required due to the added stresses of carrier landings.
 
Thx to Jester and TonyT for the base template, FBS for the internal layers from his MkVIII template and Robo for weathering and bits from his MkVc template.
 
4 skins included, 6-H/Q, one with national markings and one with tail flash.

Su-2 reskinned as a TBD Devastator.
 
I found the lack of this plane to be a major problem when creating early Pacific Naval scenarios.
 
The Devastator was not a star performer...Slow, antiquated, short on range and lacking armour, barely able to take off with its torpedo.
(Infact its main purpose seems to have been to iterate to the USN that they needed an effective Torpedo Bomber !).
 
The Su-2 is not a perfect substitute but seems the closest plane ingame in look and performance (especially when set to 'Rookie' with the minimum fuel load.)
The Su-2 cannot carry torpedoes (but 2x250kilo bombs is similar to the 1000lb bombload of the Devastator and is possibly more effective than the 'dud' MkXIII torpedoes that the US navy had during early 42.)
 
The Su-2 is slow and relatively unarmoured (like the Devastator) and has light guns, 3 Shvaks, which is similar to the Devastators (f) .50 & (rear).30.
 
Although unable to land on a carrier ,the Su-2 seems far closer ingame to this plane than the TBF-1 and for coops and offline missions, this skin may prove useful to others as it has to me.
