I've seen large areas covered with bright orange trees in the fall. Never
seen any blue trees though.


What about "Blue" Spruce?




Blue Spruce ain't very blue. A bright blue, like an intense sky-blue,
is an eye-catcher.
My favorite is a yellow with a hint of green (my Jodel proves it)
and I'll be locatable unless I go down in a canola field in June.
Notice that fire engines are using such colors these days. I
believe it was a result of research to find the most arresting shades.

Cromium Yellow is used for fire trucks because it shows up best
through smoke, fog, and snow. Red dissapears in those conditions (goes
black)
Our plane will likely be "cub yellow" with blue or green highlights.
