Quick'n'dirty look for a colour match....
Vallejo 88 Gunship Green, or Life Colour Bright Green RLM 25

The RGB (according to GIMP) is 0, 116, 107, or 00746b if you prefer hex.

Maybe Humbrol 76 Uniform Green. Bit hard to tell on a phone though.

Okay then........, let me get this correct, we are looking for a correct shade of green for a whiffer?

Personally I would go with Fs14232, from memory that was close to the interior colour that was on the Ad Adstra one I flew on back in the day.

The attached scan has a colour chip of the Adastra Green supplied by Adastra when the article was being prepared. Allowing for possible colour distortion it will give some idea of the correct shade of green. I feel confident that the WIFs would also have that green.
The article appeared in IPMS(A'asia) Modelcraft No4, 1971

Thanks for that Fred.....that at least gives me something to go on as far as colour matching is concerned.
