This is no laughing matter.

My aeroplane happens to be painted black, a choice I believe Coriolis himself made.

This may be all well and fine for the RAF whom after years of study have found it to be the most visable colour in the air, but what about the poor pedestrian?

Not many of them at 2000 feet in the aerobatic box are there.

The greater hazard is on the ground and as such I shall be compling with all EU/EC/UK/JAA/CAA directives and painting my plane a nice shade of radioactive yellow with pink stripes

And I shall be fitting the pitot tube with a cork on the end, just in case someone is fool enough not to be wering protective eyewear whilst airside.
