Keith Caldwell's SE5-A (D-6864)

Hi all,
I'am an aeromodelist from Belgium and I'm ending the construction of a 1:6 scale SE5-A my father in law had begun ng ago. He never finished the colour scheme of the plane, just painted the two colours of the camouflage.
As I Went to NZ for a month in april 2016, i visited many museums and discoverd that Keith Caldwell received the War Cross, the highest belgian distinction. So, I decided to make mine like the D6864 shown in Omaka. But there are some differences between the one I saw in Omaka and other informations I found in books. Can anybody tell me if the replica is really like the original one (radiator, Sqn markings, ...)?
Thanks for your infos!

I haven't heard any mention of inaccuracies in the Omaka reproduction, but I have no particular knowledge.
It is probably worth asking on Wings Over NZ forum.
