Swordsman422 Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 Hey guys, Anyone know offhand what color VF-162 painted the rudders of their F-8 Crusaders? Pretty much every decal sheet I've seen just gives a decal for the rudder and I am hoping to learn the color for a related project. Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paul Boyer Posted May 10, 2021 Share Posted May 10, 2021 As far as I know, the rudder is black with yellow (or multicolored on the CAG bird) stars. Same for the band under the intake and the wingtips. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Swordsman422 Posted May 10, 2021 Author Share Posted May 10, 2021 Awesome, Paul. Thank you. The photos make the rudder seem midnight blue in some cases, but glossy black can look like that on old film. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
