Thank you both very much. This is just what I needed.

Is this Stewart AF base in Newburgh,NY you're talking about? If so; I worked there in the late 70's after it was de activated. It became a alternate for the three metro NYC airports. MTA had a presence there as did a NYANG unit. I worked in Hanger E. The company I worked for leased this hanger as a scenery fabrication shop for Broadway shows. Evergreen, UPS and DHL had facilities there as did NY State Police. Around 1980 we were moved out of Hanger E so the ANG could set up shop for a C-5 unit that was being established there. I remember many a flight of cadets from West Point flying out to Colorado for an Army Air Force game, or Air Force coming to West Point. When Iran released the American hostages, they were flown into Stewart. So, there has been a lot of use made of the base since it's Deactivation. I lived there for 12 years and been here for nearly 20, and still think of Newburgh as home. Just thought I'd share this.

I need some help in painting a large scale model of a C-130. I have a picture of what I want to try to replicate, Can anyone tell me the FS # of the Gray on the lower fuselage? Secondly, I need the widths of the White-Red-White warning stripes on the prop tips. I seem to remember 2",3",2". If I am mistaken, please advise. For any and all, I can post pics of the model when I complete it if there is any interest among the membership. This may not be the correct forum for such a question, if so; I apoligise. Please know I am and will be greatful for any assistance. Thank you in advance.
