Hi this aircraft is the prototype beagle 206 and is shortly to undergo a refurbishment and help is needed to trace any information on its original paint ie colours and paint manufacturers. This information is for Mick Allen of recent seafire fame any help would be greatly received 🙂

Here is G-ARRM in its original scheme at Farnborough in September 1961. The colours were metallic bronze and white (often referred to as ‘cream’). The Humbrol No.55 ‘Bronze’ colour is a very good match.
Give my regards to Mick – he’s doing a great job! We were at Brize Norton together and reprayed my Datsun Sunny in ‘VC-10 white’ ! 😎
