A nice mellow cream color compliments orange very well. Many of the classic taildragger airplanes of the late 40's and early 50's used this color combination. Aeronca's and Taylorcraft. Come to think of it, Case tractors also sported this combo.:wink:

I'm all about white. White with an orange motor, if your wheels aren't polished, black wheels..oh man...
