Pulled St Pete out for some fresh air. Love the lighter color in a little more light.

Amazing how much L380 changes in different lighting. Just like the ocean.

Right on Breck, I dig that about this color as well. Ironically, I grew up in St. Pete and conducted a lot of flight training out of PIE years ago. Don't recall ever seeing the bus but certain it was likely prior to my frequency there. I've enjoyed your build thread.

Oh sweet! Thanks. I'd love to see some pictures of it in action. I heard they took it out of service in the late70's or early 80's. The color code was originally L512. It was white on white when I got it. So I'd guess it was velvet green L512 at the airport.

They have a slight green tint to them.

The color is called Ice Blue, at least for the sunvisors.

Not even started on it yet.

I'm building one more before I start on this one.

I could only hope it's as awesome as that beauty in that previous post.

I'll be in St Pete next week and plan to stop by the airport museum to see what I can find. Here is St Pete on a neighborhood test ride... Progress is being made, almost real road ready.
