dlan,

Before you get hard set on your colors, here's an article you should read: [link=http://www.ultimatecharger.com/color.html]Don't Color Me Gone[/link].

It points out a few things about how to design your color scheme to help you keep orientation on the plane, both up close (like while landing), and at a distance (where your color vision disappears and you only see gray shades). I tried to follow his ideas. My roundels were intended to give me dark circles in the white wing to easily identify the wing bottom. The angles of the colors on top are designed to point to the nose.

Oh, and thanks to you and all others for the compliments on my plane. Now if I could just find an Uncle Sam figure to be the pilot!
