I have recently purchased my first helicopter kit, the 1/72 Hobby Boss UH-34A kit. It has options for a Belgian and French one. Can anyone help me with what color(s) the interior should be? Thanks in advance.

Interior colors are various shades of medium and dark gray. The floors and other metal parts are a darker shade of grey, fabric parts such as soundproofing on the walls is a lighter gray. Seats have either red or medium green fabric. The instrucment panels are medium gray with black instruments. Controls (collective, cyclic, etc.) have black handles.

Here is an couple example:



Hope that helps.
