Can you shed a little light on the actual color of the cockpit panels.
I realize that different panels installed maybe slightly different colored, but overall, what was the general color of the panels.
I just looked at the one cockpit item I possess, and indeed I would call it dark gray, without a bluish tint. Unfortunately I don't have the color/paint reference....
I suspect the bluish tint is the result of lighting and camera settings.
If you're really interested, I can ask my wife to dig out her "Munseill Book of Color" (standard color chips) and try to match it up.
