I like the USCG scheme- especially since it will be true to the aircraft's actual history.

And accurate if it doesn't have any/all of the wartime turrets.
Why paint it in wartime scheme when it won't be correct?

Mark a series on the NAVY PB4Y Liberator and NAVY/CG PB4Y2 Privateer would be great. :supz:

I suppose it's too late for a vote for a PB4Y-2K (QP-4B) scheme :wink: .

That would get everyone's attention.
