RAILER is a 493rd Callsign so it should be Rebel 41 Sqn for 'RAILER 83 and 87' and the 35 Year Tri Nation Tail does not exist, it was Temporary for RIAT and removed before they departed :thumb:

Primus is a 31 Sqn call sign, as in their motto 'In caelum indicum primus' or in English 'First in Indian skies' They occasionally use Indicum too
