Hmmmm, very snazy

From this end I've heard the words "black", "silver" and "Tucano" mentioned in the same sentence, but don't quote me on that...

That blue really doesn't work against the black.  They should either lighten it up and use white or cream, or go with something warmer like orange or red.

Or maybe I just don't like black painted Hawks.

Just a quick Photoshop conversion but you must admit, it does look better.

That's Sqn colours for you though... I always thought the Hawk looked good in royal blue...

Ah well, can't change that then.

Edit: Another (very!) quick repaint in Photoshop

Ah, you see, that one isn't black enough for the flight safety people. You could have a mid a collision with something that bright...
