Default RE: Charlie Kellogg's TBM Avenger Build

Chic, found a couple of color pics similar to the scheme in the photo you posted earlier. The only "problem" is that they are of a MkII, or TBM-1C, which has the concealed tailhook as well as some other external differences to the MkIII, or TBM-3E that you want to do.

According to some of the accompanying literature, the squadron these planes were part of were assigned to "clear" the English Channel during the Overlord Invasion (D-Day). They'd still look good.
