Hawker Fury F.Mk.1
7 Squadron, Royal Iraqi Air Force
For Simon's Sea Fury - available from Capun's site.
The RIrAF acquired a total of 38 F.Mk.1s, and four two-seaters. Aside from the No.7 Sqn, the No.1 Sqn was later also re-equipped with them.
A big thanks to palopanz for the numbering. I never have the patience to do 38 sets.

Curtiss Hawk H-75A
GC I/4, 2 Escadille
Dakar, Senegal Summer 1942
Just copy the GC_I-4 folder into your installation of Wrench's Hawk75A_AdA and happy flying.
DH.89A Dragon Rapide/Dominie
Kenyan Auxiliary Air Unit
The Dragon Rapide was a common short-haul airliner before the War. With the beginning of hostilities they were pressed into service and redesignated the Dominie. Most saw service as transports (including air ambulances) and in training roles.
This particular aircraft (civilian registration VP-KCR) was pressed into service with the Kenyan Auxiliary Air Unit - a unit created in 1940 from pilots from the Aero Club of East Africa, near Nairobi. The unit performed transport, communications and reconnaissance flights, including during the East Africa campaign in 1941.
Curtiss-Wright Hawk 75Q (Hawk 75A-5)
Chinese Nationalist air force, Kumning 1942.
I've included separate skins for aircraft "2" and "4". As far as I'm aware these were the only two examples flown by the Chinese Nationalist forces. A factory was built to produce more but this was relocated to Burma before a single aircraft was produced.

Bloch MB-210
GB 1, 51 Escadille
Just copy the GB1-51 folder into your MB210 installation happy flying.
There are issues with this skin that have to do with how the bmp file is mapped. That's why I've only done one aircraft out of the 4 that saw active service during the Battle of France.
FireFox has amended the aircraft but needs help to convert it to work in the game. Volunteers???

I've re-done the base skins but the Skippybing's decals and the aircraft itself are the stars of the show. The original Readme is included.

Blackburn Baffin
2 GR (Wellington) Squadron. RNZAF (1938-1941)
For the Baffin by SkippyBing (Philip Chandler), which is available at Avsim.
New Zealand received 29 Blackburn Baffins during 1937/38. Most were converted Ripon MkIIs that had seen long service with the FAA. A handful were built as Baffins and served in the Middle East.
Arranged into 3 squadrons and assigned to training duties, they were pressed into active service (anti-submarine patrols) at the start of hostilities. The entire contingent was replaced by Hudsons and reduced to scrap in 1941.
The last remaining example of the type (a Ripon converted to a radial engine) is in Finland.

Amiot AAC-1 "Toucan"
During the occupation of France the Amiot factory produced Ju-52/3m aircraft for the Axis war effort. After WWII the factory continued to produce the same aircraft but re-badged as the Amiot AAC-1. The "Toucan" was used by the Armee de l'Air and the Aeronavale until the early 1950s in Vietnam and Algeria.
While the aircraft produced after WWII didn't have a rear gunner, all the current models of the JU-52/3m have rear gunners. Fire Fox may produce a civilian/transport version in the future.

de Havilland DH89 Dragon Rapide
100 Squadron, Israeli Air Force 1948
The IDF/AF operated 7 Dragon Rapides in 1948. Mostly operated for personnel and cargo transport, the Dragon Rapide were also be used as an air ambulance. Lacking bombers, the IDF fitted machine guns firing out the doors and aircrew pushing small bombs from the cabin. A typical load was 16x 20kg bombs. Some Dragon Rapides had bomb racks added but its not clear how many.
Strictly speaking all remaining Dragon Rapides were not concentrated in 100 Squadron until 1949.
Some of the details of the original A-Team skin have been retained. Special thanks to allenjb42 for the background material.

Hunter F73
Royal Jordanian Air Force
*******For WoI*******
I was never very happy about the colour of the stock Hunter skin. It looks fine for a gate guardian that has sat outside in all-weathers for 20 years, but not for a Hunter on active service during the 1960s. This skin is more like the Armourdave skin with a few added decals to make it more representative of a RJAF Hunter in 1967.
