Miles Magister Squadron Hack

[Andy Ingham]

Does anyboby have a good photo of a Miles Magister when being used as a Squadron hack.
Idealy the photo would be 1942-1943 and based in the Middle East/Western Desert.
I have seen several examples of training versions but am sure the hacks would have been painted in the camo scheme relevent to the theatre of operation.
I am in the process of having some aircraft profiles done and need a reference photo to base the profile on.
Thanks
Andy

Hi Andy
Not exactly what you want, it is a profile and not a photo, but seems to be in ME Colours based at Kabrit
Look at http://wp.scn.ru/en/ww2/o/586/9/0/10. It is from a Russian Site that has an English version

Thanks Dick
A good start,
However I would like to know if the undersurface would have beed yellow as shown or painted the tropical colour of Sky(Azure) blue.
Anyone with any ideas on this?
