No. 9 RNAS colors

Hi All,
What were the colors of the No. 9 RNAS Tripes?
I'm doing a water color of "Boots" LeBoutillier's tripe bashing a D.V but I can't find any info on what it actually looked like. Red cowling like in 209 sq?
Any hints on where to look?

Thanks,
John

There is a colour profile of 'Boots' LeBoutillier Triplane N5459, in Norman Franks "Sopwith Triplane Aces Of WWI". Boots scored three of his four Triplane victories in this aeroplane.
