Default Help with Sukhoi scheme!!!!

Hey all!

I am really needing your opinions! I am recovering an old Goldberg Sukhoi and I am totally undecided and stuck on which scheme to do. I have narrowed it down to the following four. Please vote so I can finish her up as the good weather is just around the corner!!!


Thanks for your help!

Regards,

Astrohog

I voted yellow. I'm color blind so it shows up very well for me in almost all light conditions. That and I just like yellow.

The red looks cool, the Yellow will show up the best in the sky. I loved the yellow on my old H9 Sukhoi, photogenic!

I like the Red, White, and Blue scheme, but I have always loved the Red and White Sukhois... Simple and clean.


[&:]I hear phrases like this all the time, using the word "sex" in this manner.... I consider myself as an intelligent, College graduate but

Keep em coming guys!! Thanks for the input so far!!

this poll is closer than I thought it might be. I guess it validates the reason why I am so undecided!!!

Please keep voting until (hopefully) there will be an obvious favorite, otherwise, I will just be more confused

Regards,

Astrohog

OK HOG, I just noticed where you are from. I really think you should go with Day Glow Yellow, not just the normal yellow. When I moved from Wash. it took me 10 years for the webs between my toes to go away and I had to burn the moss off my hind end. [)] You need something bright!!!

Gray Beard,

That is funny! And you are correct, it takes a special person to put up with the wet, gray weather around here!! I do have do defend us up here in the NW corner by saying that when summer hits, there IS NO BETTER PLACE!!!

I came down to Vegas last Sept. and I think it took a week to get the GRIT out of every nook and cranny! I do love the heat, but the wind and sand would take some getting used to!

Ah summer, when I was A kid living there I used to love both weeks of it.
I haven't been here two years yet but from the first day I said if I move again it's going to be because of the wind. It's so strong it moves my BBQ around even with the wheels locked. One thing that surprised me was seeing new pilots on the buddy box in real high winds. I needed someone to hold down my plane just to take off. Some very good pilots out here.
OK, back to the question. Because of the constant changing weather conditions you have: sun with white clouds, dark gray with black clouds and all points in between all in A mater of minutes I mite add.[8D] {can't help myself} You may want to stay away from any of the darker designs. Here and in Ca. we have A heck of A time with white planes too. Hard to see in the sun and dust clouds.
