Dear Mr Barcardi,

Firstly I want to say, my china, that I like that drink you are named after. Except for we here on the weskus only get Tassies, and then only when Baas remembers that we do not object to the dopstelsel. Of course, weekends we are all tassed up and then we go for a bit of illegal crayfish diving, you know a man moet mos ook so nou en dan something posh eet. The only thing that has been bowwering us oaks lately is this bloody blue police microlight that comes roaring accross the beach and scares the shit out of us. You should see my mates running for cover, with undersize crayfish dropping from their oversized pants when that ZU-DVE comes whizzing by man. So I tink dat as long as you promise not to fly so low over the beaches where we are doing affirmative fishing, you can choose a all blue trike.

You ma se

Go for a Day-glo leading edge. Man it lights up in the sky like a reflector. :)

Bicardi,

There is a lot to be said by having a bright leading edge. That's all I have to say about that. 8)

How about getting Aiden to send you colour patches and a wing design file (or make one yourself) for your PC using Visio, etc and then you can mix and match until your happy - thats what i did on mine

Wonder if the local sail guys have any new colours available - at one stage they were rather dull and boring to say the least

I dont like darker LE, but the marks show up really badly on a lighter one and its a nightmare to keep clean

ALL White is alos very Nice, with a little blue or yellow down the Keel :-)

The most important thing when choosing wing colours is to choose the most visible. when looking up at the wing against the sky the last colour you want is blue or white. when looking down on the wing against the ground the last colour you want is green. Same from the front. I would suggest orange leading edge, white top and dark underneath or dayglow yellow. The wing is the only thing on a trike that is vissible
