ok.. after bloody AGES carefully sanding away layers of paint to find:

R/F/S4/VB7234
C
DTD 772
(modified)
B17 8893

impressively emblazoned on both the nose and fuselage of my Sea Hawk,
today I called the Fleet Air Arm Museum to see if they could help
identify
what these magical numbers mean.

"Easy sir.. thats the paint scheme indicator".


ARGH!!!! Pass me a gallon of paint stripper!

Roy.
