WK591 7 AEF
As a member of 425 Sqn ATC, the first aircraft I flew was Chipmunk WK591 of 7 AEF, from RAF Coltishall in Norfolk in August 1970 whilst on summer camp.
Thus WK591 is the first in the set, in the silver-grey and DayGlo orange colours of the time.
Update 1.1 completes and corrects the dayglo patches and corrects the propellor and spinner.
WG417 8 AEF
Most of my flying was from RAF Shawbury, in November 1971 I flew WG417 of 8 AEF.
WG417 8 AEF Blue flash
In 1968/69 8 AEF repainted some of their aircraft with large blue flashes and details, remodelled dayglo etc, possibly for the RAF 50th anniversary.

Many thanks for these! My first flight (in *any* aircraft) was c.1967 at RAF Coningsby, on a summer camp with my school CCF. Nobody had cameras then (probably not even allowed as Coningsby was fully operational as a nuclear armed Vulcan base) ... so I've no idea as to the serial numbers of the Chippies flown.

YES, YES, YES!!!
WK591 introduced me to flight also. The date was October 9, 1971. I was a member of 422 (Corby, Northants) Sqdn ATC. We were on a visit to RAF Newton, and that's where the aircraft was based at the time, flying with 7 Air Experience Flight. WK591 will always be my aviation first-love.

Thank you for these! I was with 614 Sqn ATC (Lydney) so usually crossed the Severn to get to bases we could fly and glide from. Great memories of first flights!

Great work but no good for VR as you are looking through the pilots head.

Works in VR for me, that was a bug with 1.6.0 from AHI think and affects all liveries ... have you updated to 1.6.1?
