Abstract

5 studies were performed in order to derive a paint coloration scheme which will allow maximum aircraft visibility and detectability. It was found that maximum visibility may be expected from a large, squarelike, unbroken fluorescent red-orange area and a secondary area possessing color and brightness contrast with the fluorescent red-orange.
