I'm about to repaint my new Thaw/Lufbery N.17 to reflect Lufbery's machine. OK, lose the "T"...simple. But when I look at the three bars near the tail, I see two differing color renditions; one black and one red. Further, I even see some color images rendering the cowling red as well, as opposed to the more common silver. Examining what b&w images I can find, the cowling issue may be a moot point but it's hard to clarify the color of the bars as I can't see any roundels, nor can I see the red stripe on the rudder.
Admittedly, for game purposes, the red cowling and red bars will better differentiate the model, but can somebody tell me which scheme is truly correct?
