Title: Sopwith Camel Barker color
Post by: Jeroen79 on June 11, 2017, 12:54:05 AM

Hello, I am Jeroen and new to this forum. I have recently bought the WNW Camel Clerget and i would like to make the Barker plane.
However WNW states that the color of the nose should be gloss PC10, online i have seen it in black.
On photo's black seems to be right.
What is the right color for this plane?
Thanks!

I have studied the available photos for many years and have taken color and b&w photos of both Gloss Black and Gloss PC and it is my studied opinion that it is black.
