The couple loved the retro style of the original

to matching the paint colors, since some of
those actual vintage paints were no longer available.
Fortunately, the base color, Matterhorn

just in Beech piston aircraft. They matched the
teal in the split base color, and added the brown
accent striping. All paint, placards, and markings-
including new wing root seals-were applied by
