I am getting ready to start Kittyhawk's UH-1Y and want to make sure I have the right exterior colors. I know the Instructions call for 36495 And Medium sea gray. I am wondering if it should actually be 36375 Light Ghost Gray for the lower sections and 35237 Medium Gray for the top. Anybody out there know if this would be correct. It is hard for me to tell what I should use...

You are correct, the colors are Light Ghost Gray (FS 36375) for the main, lower color; Medium Gray (FS 35237) for the darker, upper color.

They are the same colors and scheme that was used previously on the UH-1N.
