Welcome aboard Christian!

There are a few ways to get color data for a plane...

Looks like you have three colors/codes there...

What are you trying to do?

Do you have access to the plane’s original logs?

if you are looking for touch up paints... taking an access panel to an auto paint store can get a really good match...

PP thoughts only, not a mechanic...

Best regards,

Dear Mooney Pilots 

l am finished with the 1:5 Mooney M20J model. In 2 or 3 weeks the maiden flight will be start. Thanks a lot for your help

[carusoam 12,855]

Holy cow that looks real!

Do we have any traditions to follow for a first flight in a Mooney?

Do you get any transition training with that?  

 

This is a great example of the expression of the Mooney Lifestyle!

Congrats on completing the build, good luck with the first flight...

Best regards,

best regards
