I've finally decided to get serious about finishing this kit and I've painted much of it, but I need help on the colors for the axle-wing.  Fokker Anthology No. 1 shows a number of color drawings, but I can't see the axle-wing.  Three possibilities come to mind:

1.  The thing is covered with 5-color lozenge, top and bottom, just like the wings (whose upper top was overpainted red).

2.  It was painted solid "Fokker Green" on top and light blue underneath.

3.  It was painted like the fuselage (before the white overcoating), CDL with streaky Fokker Green on top and light blue under.

Anyone have special insights--or a WAG ("wild-a**-guess")?
