Since I seem to be spending way more time building than flying these days, I have started to re-gain an interest in the C/L Stunt planes. THey remind me a lot of the classic pattern planes, and they too share those very cool looking schemes.
Tango, If your looking to drool for a few days (or longer) you have to check out CAsniffers Classic Pattern Image Base site. It has the largest co;;ection of Classics on the web:

Caution: only enter that site if you have a lot of time available!

I have a build thread for a Bridi Killer Chaos 60 going in the kit building forum. I've been trying to come up with an "Oh, yea" scheme. This site is GR8! Thanks so much.
Btw, a club friend had his Big Stik 40/60 (don't know 'xactly) at the field. Primarily a sun burst scheme originating at the prop hub. Colors included black, yellow and red (Ultracote). In a blue sky (yea, we have a couple of blue sky days in Colorado) the combination is stricking. The red pretty much disappears leaving the black / yellow dominant. The top is sun burst and the bottom has black belt (8 - 12") at the fuse and wing tips. The bottom base is bright yellow (no cub yellow please). Like I said - very easy to pick up even at distance. Very easy geometric pattern to create.
