In the 1920's and '30s, the Saratoga carried a Thick black stripe down the middle of her stack to distinguish her from the Lady Lex.

As to airships, I may add them in, but right now I have my hands full trying to complete what I have now. After that, I might add some in, but right now that will be something I determine in the future.

Yes, but her silhouette is rather dark in this pic--are you sure it would show up? Also Yorktown had a big "Y" on her island to distinguish her from Enterprise.

It would. If you look yeally close to the pick, you can tell the paint is a dull gray. You can also tell that the whole uptake is one color, not two. A Big Y might by hard to make out, but a big thick black stripe on battlechip grey could easily be spotted.

I'm pretty sure, because this is a photo of Sara:

Note the distinctive black stripe, which is lacking on the photo you presented.

A second installation would not be a problem assuming no user agreement issues.
