trat 0 #1 March 11, 2008 Hi! We're repainting the inside of Bodyflight Bedford. It was recently painted white for a film project, and is already looking a little grubby. It will be painted again before the World Challenge. Does anyone have any suggestions on colo(u)r schemes? :-) Some four-way teams have already suggested that sky blue offers better visuals. Also, since blue is quite a calming colour it also seems sensible from an instructor's point of view. However, we will listen to any sane suggestions from our customers! :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
freeflydrew 0 #2 March 11, 2008 whatever looks the best on video... how about green, so you can green screen special effects like space ships and airplanes? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tdog 0 #3 March 11, 2008 I am not a customer (of your tunnel).... However, I like the idea of maybe a few stripes, dots, or something unique... It allows a coach to communicate. "The outside center will face the red dot, that way the tail does not get sucked out the door." "Do 90 turns, from green to red, so we can get the right camera angle for the debrief." Numbers could work as well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bodyflight.Net 0 #6 March 12, 2008 I would love to see you guys do a retro-tribute to Flyaway... I also happen to think this color scheme is HOT HOT HOT(i've always thought so, how fun that I get a chance to voice my opinion) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cocik 0 #7 March 12, 2008 I think that color does not really matter (agree with tdog about some dots etc. being very useful), but while you are at it, it may be a good idea to add a mirror to one of the window plates. Mirror is one of the coolest features of SVCO & it really helps in training. See you guys in April at the indoor nationals Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

See you guys in April at the indoor nationals Unfortunately having a round tunnel causes its own problems when it comes to having a mirror, Having a mirror has been dug up a few times at our staff meetings, but with so much work already being carried out downstairs on the leisure facilities i think it wouldn't get to far up the list of priorities. We do have a mirror just above and to the left of the exit door. Looks like the world challenge is going to be Awsome, I reckon the Free Flying rounds are gona blow peoples minds....lol... Look forward to seeing all of you there.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
