The Indian Sea Harrier mod has a similar skin that might just need some FAA decals to convert to an early SHAR skin. SF2 version: SF1 version:

I was thinking more along the lines of flying them off Ark Royal or another carrier like the operations to reinforce the Spitfires on Malta (Operations Calendar and Bowery). I think your imagination has got a bit rusty during your sabbatical from CA! (Just kidding)

Very nice! BTW would a Hunter have had the range to make it to the Falklands (via Ascension Island?) or would they have been shipped in?

Simple answer is I cheat! For dramatic effect the airfield pictures are from various missions I've recently flown in my new SF2: USMC install, and the queue of aircraft waiting for take-off is just from me choosing lots of different aircraft for my squadron in the single mission Load-out screen. Having said that, once I took off I sent everyone else home and flew the RAF C-130 to make a cargo drop close to a village near the Ethiopia-Sudan border, where I was shot at by AAA an on egress was engaged by a Sudanese MiG-29 which I dodged while two USMC F/A-18Cs came to my rescue and took him out. I didn't take any pictures of that mission after takeoff, so my mandatory screenies are a Force Recon insertion off a hostile coast in my SF2: USMC install (the Zodiac is a Groundobject from YAP Straits of Hormuz):
