The original color scheme of my Elite RS was the same blue and silver as on the ebay bike. It was in rough shape, thus the clear powdercoat. Hope to have it on the road by spring, w pictures posted.

Yes, I left C-130s in flight, and from the looks on the flight crew's faces, they thought we were crazy. OTOH, after taking off in those rattling old Herkybirds, I look at them the same way for landing 'em.
