Color Schemes, the good the bad and the visible

[Pattrnflyr at aol.com]

Someone brought up an interesting point.  What kind of sky do you usually fly 
in.  Here in Colorado we have 300+ sunny days a year.  Pacific northwest, 
where I used to live does not.  Pick a color that works well in your "sky".  
I love the color blue, don't use it here, I don't particularly like yellow.  
All my pattern planes are yellow, because that is what I can see.  When you 
are at the field pay attention to the sport guys aircraft that are different 
colors to determine what you can see.  I also keep my trim schemes similar to 
help me have the same sight picture on each aircraft.  The idea of light 
tips, in my case cub yellow, also seems to work for me as well as having the 
top very different from the bottom.

See ya,

Bruce
