All the images I can find seem to be slightly darker, especially the special tailed livery.

In this photo the grey of the special color is more darker than the others and the radome isn't black but grey:

Sadly, in this more recent photo the tail art is gone:

ok i'm happy with this texture now. i have put 2 textures in for "81" so you can have the 2008 special paint or the newer

standard grey, i have put a weekly flight plan with this package but feel free to do your own..............

NICE !!
Ray, no one can fault the colours even the ones your original posts .Grey ,especially the CP140 501-109 paint will fade very rapidly to an RGB of 192,208,201( the green is known to quickly fade out giving a blueish grey tint) . If you're lucky enough to witness any current grey fighter "flash" in and out of sunlight against different sky backgrounds you'll swear you've just seen 4 or 5 different colours on the same A/C .
