Colouring of the Tornados

Good afternoon, I suggest to pack all the known infos about the colour here in one common place (feel free to PM me some further info, I will include them later on). Tonight, I work the night shift so I have plenty of time to add and link to relevant threads!

Cockpit:

Floor: a dark green anti-slip coverage on GR.1, black on GR.4

Tub, consoles: Dark admirality grey, many people use medium sea grey as base

Gear

Bays / gear legs: Very light gray (so light, many people say it's white)

Gear door actuator: white

Speed brakes (inside / speed brakes bay)

White (link see above)

Does anyone have any good references for the Brimstone pylon? There's lots of photos of them fitted on the aircraft with missiles, but I can't find any of the pylon on its own. Thanks!
