                        Thank you very much.  That's what I needed.  Most of the detail I knew, but was vague on hull and flight deck.  Can actuall finish a model for the club meeting.

                        The specification for modern USN Haze Gray is 26270.   Testors MM Neutral Gray is 36260 -- so its flat vs satin.   I actially prefer to lighten my Neutral Gray 1:3  for fading.
                         
                        Testors MM Gunship is good for weather decks.    Engine Gray is god for new, unweathered flight deck non-skid.   Old non-skid weathers to Gunship.

                        I am sure this is out there somewhere, but didn't find it right off.  The club contest next month is "It Floats".  Been a few years since I have built a modern USN vessel and I still haven't unpacked about half my reference library from moving last year, ergo, I am looking for the colors (and paints) to complete a modern flattop, specifically CVN-73 (USS George Washington.)  Any assistance appreciated.  THX. . .
