After the Tactical Phase, the tail was painted white with a red maple leaf on which the letter "B" was superimposed.

In 1983 it was painted in 421 Squadron's "toothbrush" scheme (as it was known to 439 and 441 personnel) or the "arrow" scheme" (to those in 421) 
for the squadron's 40th anniversary and the 30th anniversary of CFB Baden-Sollingen as a Canadian base.
