Changing colour of letters

SOH-CM-2023
Some of the default a/c and others such as the Just Flight Cessna 152 Insider allow for the registration letters to be altered. Is there an editable line somewhere (the aircraft.cfg?) which determines the colour? The Cessna shows black letters on red, and I'd like to change them to a more visible white.

Thanks
 
Yes, in aircraft.cfg.
Suggest adding line after atd_id= that would start with atc_id_color=

An internet search for atc_id_color should get you information on codes to use for various colours.
You could also look in aicraft.cfg for other planes that happen to have an atc_id_color you like.
atc_id_color
Specifies, in RGB hexadecimal, the color of the tail number. The first two characters following the 0x specify the red value in hex, the second two characters the green, and the third set the blue. The final two characters are unused. Each value can be between 0 to ff hex, which is 0 to 255 decimal. Note that custom tail numbers burned into textures will not be modified by this.
Cessna Skyhawk 172SP( atc_id_color=0xffffffff )
Cessna Grand Caravan( atc_id_color=0xff000000 )
Extra 300S( atc_id_color=0xffff0000 )

Thank you. Of course, since posting I have realised that if I change the fuselage letters to white I will lose them from the white wing, where black is just right!
