Time for the annual Wingnuts speculation

[Doug Mace]

Yeah...you gotta think that Pheon is all over the imminent Camel release..maybe doing 3 or 4 sheets. There were so very many Camel squadrons to choose from.

[Doug Mace]

They could really go overboard and do the Ruston 1000th Camel, but that seems more up Rowan's baliwick.  I also seem to recall an all-white Camel from somewhere, maybe known as the White Feather?  The US Navy also had a post-war Camel in an interesting naval scheme.  My sources are all at home, so I'll have to check them tonight.  I'm sure this will be fun!

Bob

There was a white Camel in the 41st Aero, USAS...seems I've another one somewhere.

I probably should have phrased it that some of us will contemplate our naval Camels.

Bob, there was Harry Cobby's white Camel, that he used while attached to a training squadron in the UK, which I believe was called the "White Feather".  Is that the one?

Here it is, The White Feather
Note the white struts, white machine guns and white propeller

That's a cool camel, Des. I like how even the MGs are painted white.

I was just doing a bit of research on the white Camel and came across another. It looks like we have at least a few choices if we want a white Camel.

Note the absence of MGs.

  Perhaps a trainer?

still if pheon does do a camel sheet he can fit quite a bit of brit markings on not to much sheet area. may be able to do more than one squadron per release.

[macsporran]

yes, the all-white E7259 was with 5 Training Sqdn AFC at Minchinhampton in 1918.

There were also a group of eight 2F.1 Camels sent to Canada in 1925 in white (or maybe cream or silver?)
One of them N8156 was displayed in Ottawa in this light colouring for some years before being "restored" to a more representative colour scheme.

I've always wondered if these aircraft were perhaps the reason the box art on the original 1956 release of the Aurora Camel showed a pale (yellowish-buff) F1.
