AMO A.664/42 dated 2 July 1942 stated that Photographic Reconnaissance Unit aircraft were '...coloured and marked in accordance with operational requirements. The camouflage and colouring do not necessarily conform to the standard, nor are the national markings invariably carried in the orthodox positions or painted in standard colours' Thus in a World War full of rules and regulations, those which covered the camouflage and markings of the RAF's Photographic Reconnaissance aircraft explicitly stated that there were no rules and regulations. As such, there is a great deal about this subject which remains uncertain and it is therefore difficult to compile a cohesive account of the development and use of the camouflage and marking schemes used on the RAF's Photographic Reconnaissance aircraft.
