Just take a part of the plane to Home Depot or Lowes and have em match it up.

I do it all the time. Enough so I don't get strange looks dragging part of a plane to the paint counter.

When I die, I want to go like my Grandfather did, in his sleep...... Not screaming like the passengers in his plane.

Panther i did find one its Tamiya XF-19 sky grey it works great with most grey military aircraft if you need it darker add a couple of drops of black our lighter a couple of drops of white until you find the matching shade.
