With all the posts regarding collision avoidance electronics, I was wondering about high vis markings.

Seems like many of us put thousands of dollars into electronics and nothing into high vis markings.

Kinda hard to believe the infinite wisdom master has not mandated it, and especially since a transposer is not required.


USAF airplanes had Day-Glo markings in the Fifties, but it went away.
IIRC they concluded it just wasn't getting results, even with all
their formation flying.
