Federal Standard Colors for 1930s/40s A/C

[SWAT25]

I am working 2 projects. A US Blue and Yellow aircraft from the 30s/early 40s, and a Philippine based P-40 from the Bataan campaign. I need the federal standard colors for the following:

 

Dark Olive Drab No. 41 from bulletin No. 41, Spec 24114 

 

Neutral Gray 43 from the same bulletin/spec.

 

Light Blue No. 23

 

Yellow No. 4

 

ANA True Blue

 

ANA Orange Yellow

 

Thanks for any help or info in this effort. I happened to chose some of the hardest colors to match accurately.

Hi,

 

Jennings is globally right but there were some correspondances for some colors.Here is the correspondance with FS595B taken from Archer's "USAAF aircraft markings and camouflage 1941-1947" :

 

Dark Olive Drab No. 41 from bulletin No. 41, Spec 24114 : no equivalent, superseded by ANA613 Olive drab or FS 34088 (that was darker than 41)

Neutral Gray 43 from the same bulletin/spec.: no equivalent, superseded by ANA603 Sea Gray or  FS 36118 (that had a blue tint whereas 43 had not because it was just a black and white mix)

 

Light Blue No. 23 (bulletin 3-1, 28 Nov. 1918): FS 15193

Yellow No. 4 (bulletin 3-1, 28 Nov. 1918): FS 13538

ANA True Blue: also known as Light Blue (ANA 166 Bulletin, 4 Dec 1943): FS 15102

ANA Orange Yellow (Orange yellow 5 / 106 / 508): FS 12197
