Lovely but going by the book

1. Illegal yellow spinner
2. This is a Squadron Leader livery not a Wing Co
3. Squadron Leader pennant
4. Flaps up when the book says 20 degrees for take off

Seriously it looks great :nice:

@ Teeepee: she'll be with me at Duxford if I make it this year (fingers crossed) ;)
@ Dickie: Teepee was a Sqn Ldr by the time of Fall Gelb and his yellow spinner was officially approved by the Air Council of the Air Ministry itself, so everything is "historically accurate". And flaps for take off? Never heard of that concept... Must be some sort of auxiliary squadrons' procedure, for sure :D
@ Sokka and Secu- thanks Gents. Glad you like it :)

1:The spinner is historical.

2: this is during Fall Gelb, therefore the livery is correct.

3: I don't know to be honest.

4: 15 to 20 degrees if necessary on takeoff.
