One thing that bugged me about the HMS Illustrious was those little RAF Roundels displayed on the horizontal stabilisers of the Swordfish aircraft sitting on her deck. Whoever the developer was that came up with that little bit of inspired wisdom ought to be keel-hauled.

I've made a similar fix for the both the stock and GW versions of the Illustrious (with the slightly darker hull colour) and the Ark Royal model which is included in U-boat War Aces, and packaged them in one handy zip. Just use whichever texture is appropriate to your SH3 installation.

Here's a screener of what I'm talking about;
