That's a pretty sweet looking paint job but red would be more visible
than gray.Â* But...Â* I think the owner was going for good looks rather than visibility and he achieved that goal. On 1/16/2020 7:35 PM, wrote: It reminds me of an IS-28 -- Dan, 5J

I've got quite a bit of time in Tom Bjork's ASH-30mi.Â* And while these
beautiful super ships have performance advantages all over my Stemme, they just can't compare to the pleasure of flying my big boat with a friend or loved one right next to me.Â* And before I'd spend the cash for such a super paint job, I'd have to spend the time to clean the poor thing up.Â* It's too cold now in the mountains of New Mexico and, when it warms up, I'll be spending my time flying! :-D On 1/17/2020 12:26 PM, Jonathan St. Cloud wrote: On Friday, January 17, 2020 at 11:16:41 AM UTC-8, Dan Marotta wrote: That's a pretty sweet looking paint job but red would be more visible than gray.Â* But...Â* I think the owner was going for good looks rather than visibility and he achieved that goal.
