Ah yes, the operators of what was once the largest Heron fleet in the world, each aircraft painted a different colour.

However, the little De Havilland Gypsy engines of the Heron were not radials, nor were the Lycomings of its Riley conversion so I'm afraid for this question we'll need to have another go.
