Paint idea
- (5 hours)

My father and I have spent time going over how we will want to paint the airframe. The first components are yet to arrive from Fisher, but I believe the overall design idea is important and deserves to be thought of now. So many decisions from light locations to the type of landing gear are based on this final concept. We decided that the Horizon 2 looks like an Aeronca Champ had a baby with a Cessna birddog. Because of my dad's service in the Marines, we decided to go the route of a Marine Corps liaison aircraft. We will modify the base blue color slightly, but overall the aircraft will resemble an OY-1 from VMO-6.
