Marcus, have you seen this? Might make repaints easier? Thanks for these.

So they have got rid of those paler edges of panels. Can't say that I am unhappy, they may have done a job but they looked very messy.

Hi Chris,

thank you for the link. They look better in the new coating. I try to get it done in the repaints.

I thought the jagged radar absorbent paint was applied to panels to seal them to reduce the signature. Does that mean the radar signature has been compromised in favour of cost? It must have been expensive to remove a panel and repaint the jaggies every time it's put back again.

The other thing is that until we see close up images of the new scheme painters won't be able to see the full nuances of the new look.
