Thank you gentlemen for your replies! This is a repaint that I actually did a couple years ago, but never got it uploaded anywhere, I only had shared it on the A2A forum with a temporary download link that had long since expired.
Pat, do you have your father's logbook and does this aircraft's BuNo show up in it? That would be quite fascinating, as the reason I did this repaint is because it was a request by another flight simmer, Bill Beseler, whose grandfather flew this very aircraft a number of times in training as it shows up in his logbook. As I mention in the repaint description, the airframe still survives today, completely intake and unrestored, in storage (but completely stripped to bare metal).
When I did this repaint, I spent a lot of time researching the specific stencils and stencil locations and the sizes and placements of the stars & bars as SNJ's operating from Pensacola at the time had, so that it would all be as accurate as possible (without actually having any photos showing this particular airframe at the time). The only detail that was not known is what the individual aircraft number/"buzz number" was. Unless an original photo is found, or a record of the aircraft from Pensacola would have it marked on it, it is impossible to know what that number was since it never had anything to do with the BuNo or any other number associated with the airframe. I just picked "28", as it would have been within the range of numbers used, I didn't have any photos showing an SNJ with the number "28" (therefore it could have been an option, since I couldn't prove it was another airframe), I had enough photos to accurately draw the stencils for the the 2 (which was also used upside down as a five) and 8, and it was also my age at the time I did the repaint. The sizes and placements of the "28", and as I mentioned the design of those stencils (and all of the stencils you see on the aircraft), are all accurately drawn and located.
In the VC, I've used my WWII-era modified textures, which accurately color the canopy frames black, and among other things depict the instruments in the period-look. On this one in particular, I also re-did some of the instruments again to have the look of the Navy gauges. Not all, but several of the gauges on these SNJ's had some of the details of the dials (ticks and numbers) colored "Munsell Green", and you'll find that depicted with this repaint. For the full compliment of Munsell Green gauges, you'll have to operate the aircraft with the Knots-version of the airpseed indicator, rather than the MPH-version.
