Hi All,


Not having much luck in finding the actual colours of this paint scheme. If you remember this bird, or have pictures, I'd love to hear from you! Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hope it helps.

Google Air Albatross from NZ and that might give you the colour scheme. They are not in the Kendell colour scheme but probably on a delivery flight.

It's various shades of blue. I'll scan it for you in the morning when my eyes are working!

I hope you are not looking for precise colour specs as that's always difficult.

Sorry the lighting is a bit of a disappointment. Taken circa July 1986. Looks like Tullamarine. Send me a PM with an email address if you want the high res version which is 5000 pixels.
