This last weekend was the Howard Reed memorial race held at the Sepulveda Basin in Los Angeles. I always enjoy walking the pits at least once to admire all the great paint jobs. These paint jobs are not only beautiful, but they are also designed to be easy to see at high speeds. All pilots can benefit from models with high visibility paint schemes. Here are some pictures from the race. It would be great to compile a bunch of different paint schemes so

PLEASE POST PICTURES OF YOUR HIGH VIZ PAINT SCHEMES!

These schemes can be helpful to all models, lets see how many pictures we can gather.

The other good reason for stand out paint schemes is to ensure that you don't start flying someone else's model. I've seen it happen with similarly coloured models in a close race.

This one sticks out quite well at the UK F3D meetings, Paul Bardoes colour scheme for the WC in France.

Are you going to France with Paul? If so, say hi to the Canadian boys for me.

Yes I am going as Pauls caller, will say hi to the Canadians.

What is the race that you went to at Sepulvida?

I have heard Sepulvida is a mad house regarding tx control etc. is that the case?
