The fun thing about this is that there really is no wrong way to paint a Cessna. I've seen Skyhawks and earlier models in all kinds of paint schemes at my local airport and on TV. If I can get some good reference shots, I'd like to try my hand at replicating the tiger striped Cessna Jump Plane featured in one of the old Frankie Avalon/ Annete Funicello Beach movies. Anyway, thanks for taking a look. :)

HA! I saw Beach Blanket Bingo a couple of weeks ago on Turner Classic Movies, and saw the Red and White striped Cessna 172. Laughed out loud! What a goofy flik!  ;D
