Hey guys, lighten up!!!
It's much more likely that he ran out of white tape and the black stuff was
either what was still at hand or what was locally available to be purchased.
It's entirely appropriate for a contest pilot to have priorities higher than

And we all know that pilots who can afford to spend so much on a glider
have got to save the three cents on wing tape.
What a reputation to keep up.
