Thanks again ! Yeah.......disorientation.........I hear Ya. I hear that word from a lot of the 60+ crowd I fly with. I'm also 60+ and use that word quite often.

I have one 62" .60 size plane that I covered the top with bright yellow and the bottom with black.........no more disorientation !

Did you get that rare NC snowstorm/windstorm ?
