Unfortunately we could not maiden the Vixen this weekend, weather still bad, Rich and Jim will try to do it next days, so I decide to post some basic color schemes that will be offered to customer they were drawn by Marc S, those are basic but customers can send any color scheme that they have in mind and Xtreme ARF will do it.

Guys just to add something to the schemes the VIXEN logo is not the same as designed and has been lost in posting - the logo is in a font called Sea Dog 2001 and is more in-keeping with the design. Naturally as Wagner suggests these are 'basic' schemes which can be ordered however clients can also design and specify their own schemes from Xtreme.

Here is the logo in Sea Dog 2001 on one schemes:

Sorry, but it looks like all the others to me. I just wish they would be a bit more imaginative with designs.

As I said, if you want to order you can order any color scheme that you have in mind, does need to be those at the post.

These schemes are designed as a basic option, something simple and sharp looking, I've asked for people to post ideas but as ever none ever get suggested. How about posting some ideas of your own?

Xtreme will apply any scheme you want to most of the jets they manufacture so you can have whatever you want anyway.

Ah, the problem with not embedding the font file... that explains why the logo on the prototype was not the same as yours...

I do like the Sea Dog 2001 font much better!

David,

Once the testing has been completed and the full production model is ready the final pricing will be released. Wagner might be able to give a 'guide' as he is closer to the production costs etc.

I would like to state that any jet will be sold and delivered before extensive tests.
