Title: Popular aircraft paint schemes - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Description: Believe it or not, all styles and schemes depend on N# regulation markings. It’s best to understand your N# first, how big or small it can be and then start the design process. For example, an aircraft less than 30 years old must have an N# that is 12 inches or larger. An aircraft 30 years or older only 2 inches. An aircraft up to 180 Kts C.A.S. needs at least a 3 inch N# and if it’s faster than 180 Kts C.A.S. it must be 12 inches. For production or experimental aircraft, the N# must be placed horizontally on the tail or fuselage between the trailing edge of the wing and/or the leading edge of the horizontal stabilizer or the jet engine housing (nacelles). For a rotorcraft, the N# must be placed horizontally on the cabin, fuselage, tail or the boom. And finally for experimental aircraft the markings need to be horizontally on the tail, fuselage between the trailing edge of the wing and/or the leading edge of the horizontal stabilizer. – PowerPoint PPT presentation
