any1 got any Canadian Spitfires

Post by :FI:Up-n-at-'em » Sun Feb 06, 2005 8:55 am

Thru some incomprehensible overslight, er i mean oversight, the Canadian Spitfire squads have been left out of FB. And seeing as IL2 skins is down, I can't seem to find me any Canadian Spitfire skins. Has anyone got any ?
Or even the little mapple leaf in a white circle emblem that could easily be tacked on to some of our beatiful FI created Spit Skins ?

Tanks!
