Hurricane II night fighter question ...

[Tail-Dragon]

Question for the Hurricane experten out there - would Karl Kuttelwascher's Hurricane II JX*E  (the grey/green over black scheme) have the yellow outboard leading edge I.D. marking, and would the wheelwells, inside surface of the doors, struts,  and wheel hubs remain aluminum (silver) or be painted black?

I'm about to start Hasegawa's Mk II,

 

 

 

I have Eaglestrike's  set 48126, which seems to indicate NO leading edge yellow, but does not address the gear color ...

 

Any help would be appreciated,

 

Thanks,

Colin

The true colours of BE581 are a fraught subject which comes up regularly.  Just type "Kuttelwascher" into the search engine and read the various threads in which our best minds offer their insights.

HI Colin

 

this one covers the main points

http://www.britmodeller.com/forums/index.php?/topic/234976286-hurricane-mk-iic-flown-by-km-kuttlewascher/

 

note the nightfighters shown have  retained the inside of  the UC  doors etc in aluminium, so I'd stick with the wells being painted aluminium too.
