I like the paint. She will definitely ad class to KBVS. There is a Corporate air center operating there with more than a few new fancy single engine aircraft sitting around. This paint job will make any of those new birds blush and head for the ladies room for a makeover. I will treat her right.

I will be glad to give anyone a ride. The paint is great but my choice would be that “digital” camo Military scheme seen on the CONA planes. Now that would create ramp chatter.

I’ve seen some similar paint swoops on more recent Cessna’s, and in person, they aren’t too bad. Then again, that red and white paint job would be perfection without the swoops.

I’ll take it how it comes, though. Please send it to Flying Cloud airport (KFCM).

The guy is right it is modern and people should appreciate it. It a wonderful masterpiece that we shouldn’t judge so harshly.

The paint scheme is modern guy’s! This airplane wasn’t built long ago, the parts department at Cessna was just storing this airplane in flying formation until AOPA could get a hold of them. Great effort and we all should appreciate the art that this bird has become.

I agree with David W. The swoopy thing should have faded away like my acid wash jeans and Duran Duran LP’s. Beautiful airplane though once you get past the ridiculous paint job!

Sorry guys!
With all those “swoopy ribbons and bows” this is a girlie, princess plane with my name on it. KBVU is ready for her.

What a coincidence, my wives favorite color is red so I can keep it. It will be a great addition to all of Santa Paula’s (KSZP) fine and rare aircraft.

Sorry, the plane is coming to Canada. Lethbridge, Alberta to be exact.

Hard to see the paint job from inside the cockpit at 9,5….who cares? I’m positive all you suckers will amaze at her beauty as I buzz over your heads in route to our home……L18 Fallbrook, CA.
