Is that the airplane Bob Ross flew?

Was it camouflaged to match sunsets and sunrises? That’s awesome

Yes, exactly why. Great observation.

Very cool. Did not know they flew the pink version of these. Always thought the Spitfire was odd looking.

May have been designed by the British Dental Engineers.

Beautiful aircraft, beautiful job. I did not know they used pink. I just assumed they always used PRU blue.

Desert camouflage?
That was my thought.
There's a B-24 at Barksdale with the same paint scheme

Great job! Had never seen the pink color scheme before. Thanks for sharing......

I know a ton about WWII and somehow never knew this.

Although the planes were ideally meant to fly at sunset and sunrise, when the clouds took on a pinkish hue and made the plane completely invisible against them, they were also useful during the day. Clouds are pinker than we give them credit for.
Apparently they have a few that are still maintained as the pink camouflage color. There is supposedly a video of it flying where they show you the camo effect, but I can’t find it.
