This is a very simplistic solution that works only in this case
Thanks. I fear the issue here is a printing one. On my iPad and laptop screens, the grays are all the same. Yet when I have them printed at a local print shop (we lack a color printer at home) the grays differ from page to page.

The same thing happened when Yukonjohn repainted one of Murph's Twin Otters in UAE colors. The aircraft is a single shade of dark gray and when I got it printed out, I got different shades from page to page.

Yukonjohn (and John Bowden before him with the Jimmy Carter) certainly didn't change the grays from page to page and, like I said, they look fine on the screen. So all I can figure is there is some printer issue.
