    Hey Guys. My first post here!

    Decided to repaint my plane and use F1 Ferrari as the Theme. What do you guys think?

    Suggestions??

    Thanks

    Looks cool but I would leave the Ferrari emblems/decals off it.

    A few years ago at the Festivals of Speed event in
    St. Petersburg, Florida event there was a Piaggio executive
    jet painted in similiar livery.

    You should submit your design to them.

    Nice, but I´d opt for something more subtle, without the decals of sponsors, etc

    I think it looks great, but I would leave the Ferrari badges off to avoid helping pay for this year's failure.

    Use the Scuderia Red that's slightly brighter, I'm Ok with the logos only go with full old school Marlboro branding! HaHa.

    There are quite few restrictions with the FAA and what type of vinyl to use. Most of them have color limitations, that's why I am opting for these logos and white. The Scuderia logo did not fit well as I tweaked with it.

    If I take the emblems/decals off then you get away from the F1 theme. It looks very plain.

    I did place the "bar code" symbol that represents the Marlboro... hehhe.. not promoting smoking!! hehehe

    As for this year's performance... well, I won't say a word.

    Is the 22 reflective of Massa's most likely qualifying/finishing position? Sorry had to go there.
    But seriously why 22? Why not 5 like it is now or 1 like it was a few years ago when they had the bar code?
    Just a though but I really like what you have so far. Good luck

    The "22" is likely standing for the 22 in Cirrus SR-22? If that is the case it makes sense.

    Maybe the current F1 car has similar downforce characteristics as this plane ...

    For what it's worth, during the ferrari tour in italy... they have the ferrari badge on the bus.

    I made a joke and said.. "I didnt know you ferrari made busses now"

    poor tour guide lady took me seriously.

    I for one like it, Being a former CFII. Of all the planes I use to fly this one would have been a unique one.......Congrats the local FSBO will surely enjoy it as well.
