Yep, I have noticed that preference for a yellow finish. With me, it (yellow) is the color that I see the best of all on the widest swings of weather.

If one gets tired ot using plain yellow, try using Cub Yellow as the base color and Dark Red as the trim color. In Monokote, that color combo will knock your eyeballs out. I wouldn't have believed it until a friend showed up with a new RCM Trainer 40 some years ago (hi Lee Hastings). Now Lee is a good builder and that certainly helped win appearance points, but this color combo turned out to be dynamic and inexpensive (no metallic colors). Be sure to use some black 1/8" striping between the two colors. It amplifies the dynamics of the colors.
