Welcome, while working on the 262's in the meanwhile I thought I share this.
I need a break from time to time, this is one of my older Projects. First not intended for public.
But I know there are hungry folks waiting for more Skin-supply, hope you have appetite.
I'll update and refurbish later.
Make sure you have S-199 flyable thru SAS/DBW/UP3 or HSFX install!!!

Aircraft was shared inventory, where there is notable record I listed below.
The nickname Sakeen came up decades later, when in service it was called "Mule", for his lousy, unforgiving flight-characteristics.
Stenciling was not made under standards, pictures show each bird had different stencils applied, one lacked this, while others had a variation applied of that, some even lacked some important stencils, all mixed up. Noteworthy is that they where kept in English, not Hebrew or Czech.
Green, RLM Primer or not? RAL 6013 Schilfgrün
There was/are and will be discussions regarding the colour used on the Mule in IAF service.
As for the colour in which my Avias come I took up the examinations of Mr. Yoav Efrati, an employee of the IAF Museum, who did the most up to date restoration work on existing IAF Avia S-199.
RAL 6013 Schilfgrün, a gloss paint, briefed thru photographs on freshly supplied Airframes.
The new IAF unit searched for proper Markings, Stan Andrews came up with the Squadron badge, while Jack Cohen came up with an idea for the ferry mission Velvetta I.
Rudder stripes were applied after "Operation Velveta I",
on the advise of one volunteering former SAAF pilot, the inventory of the squad to be painted in SAAF style. Red spinners and red-white tailstripes.
Tailbands of 101 Tajesets Avias where white-blue only, no black or red, despite what you may be presented.
They flew Recce missions themselves, according to their logbooks. So it came someone shook up an Avia using Recce unit (red stripes).
Avias in IAF service had different style of National Markings applied, small, middle or even over-large sized, personalised too, as Giddy Lichtmanns 'Nechana' shows.

Also credits to the guys at Aviaskins/SAS/UltraPack for providing us this cool gal and 1C for giving us a fine Sim to play with.
I dedicate this Pack to Michel, the coolest Jew I ever met, thanks for the props.
OK, I had much fun creating these Skins and hope you have it too, while flying our "Mule", don't be too harsh to her.
Shalom and Regards
