RAF Mitchells - interior colors and harness type?


Recommended Posts

Thinking about modeling the newish Airfix B-25C/D as an RAF Mk II, as I don't want to wait for the dedicated British release.

 

Any ideas on the interior colors and which type of harness the RAF Mitchells used?

I guess they would still be built to US standards, but I may be wrong.

 

Any and all input is most welcome! :)

In many films of archive(98,180, 320sq), we can see that pilot don't have shoulder straps.

One view of inboard shows the pilot, there is the parachute harness on his shoulders only.

I think that the safety belt was US type (B11 type, whithout shoulder straps) on RAF Mitchell.
