Colour Notes: 1. Some aircraft are not included as my database is limited and I like to work from clear photo's. 2. Credit must go to all the photographers who's photo's I have collected over many years and used here - just too many to credit each one individually and I have lost track of which belongs to which. 3. In some cases colour names are generic as the ofcial name is unknown, specially Russian and Chinese colours. 4. FS numbers are in most cases only the closest available colour as FS is very limited as a colour system. 5. Aircraft are not depicted in any order or sequence. 6. Some colours are duplicated in the colour table in the interest of ease of reference to the user. 7. Contributions and/or corrections may be sent to mechinf@netactive.co.za. 8. No paint colours are include due to the fact that paint colours differ from manufacturer to manufacturer, batch to batch and year to year and inconsistencies by manufacturers, even the age of the paint in your stash makes it just too unreliable to do accurate matching.
