This photo on the NZETC site shows three Vickers Vincents of No. 1 Squadron in 1941. www.nzetc.org/tm/scholarly/WH2AirF-fig-WH2AirFP008a.htmlNote that they each wear different markings, one just plain silver, one with the code letter Z, and the third, most interesting of all, seems to be in camouflage and wearing light blue roundels. Is that's the case, then I would guess this is later than 1941. And I'd think this one has probably been to Fiji where the Vincents served operationally with No. 4 and No. 5 Squadrons. So this may be as late as 1943. Neat picture though eh.

By the way, it may not be in camouflage, but the paint certainly looks darker than on the nearer two to the camera, and the roundel is definately different.
