David Walker Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) And while it's a bit fuzzy, here's a shot of the cockpit of one while it was in SE Asia: Edited January 28, 2009 by David Walker Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve N Posted January 28, 2009 Share Posted January 28, 2009 Here are a couple of shots of the US Air Force Museum's A-26K during restoration. Althought it's very dusty, the cockpit was is definately black throughout. SN Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Steve N Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Unfortunately those are all I have. I've got a fair number of generic exterior shots of the plane since the restoration was finished, but nothing of the interior. SN Quote Link to post Share on other sites
A-4Silverfox Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 IIRC the bomb bay area of the one I saw at Clark Field in 1968 was an interior green, but the inside of the bay doors were black. Remember a lot of their missions were flown at night. I just completed a 1/48 Nimrod using the Meteor Productions resin conversion. I painted the cockpit flat black but wheel wells were done using interior green. Also, the clear piece on the end of the fuselage was painted over on Nimrod aircraft.
