This may be a very remedial question that every modeler knows the answer to but is there listed somewhere the colors of seat belts used in aircraft in WWII? I have been using masking tape "as is" (because it was handy) for several years for non-contest" entry models but would like to have some guidelines as to what the actual colors of the seat belts should be.

That should work for a lot of WWII aircraft. Once you get into the modern era you'd be dealing with nylon (sage green?) Anyone else? hth
The Keeper (of too much crap)
Canvas (Light Gray) or -- more rarely -- Hemp? Possibly leather? (Black or brown.)
Thus the qualifiers...
