I said good-bye to my Silver Baby… And picked up a Yellow Piece of Art!
This Flight Chops episode shares the whole Behind the Scenes process of what goes into the best paint jobs in General #Aviation !
This Airplane does NOT deserve to look this good!
- That's one of Jonathan's trade mark jokes, but it is true! - Evoke fixed a lot of little boo-boos I assumed we'd have to live with. It is truly amazing work, and it totally exceeded my expectations of having an "honorary Yellow Bird" scheme to fit in with the warbird trainer fleet.
I am proud to be a member of the Canadian Aviation Museum (formerly CH2A).
They are a not-for-profit organization that anybody can visit, and (almost) any pilot can join and fly the planes. Please consider sharing their link, visiting the museum in Windsor, and/or sending a small donation to help them keep our historic warbirds flying!

I’m obviously a huge fan of Evoke Aviation.
If you’re looking to get the best paint job for your Van’s Aircraft, definitely hit them up!

More insights Jonathan added while replying to comments after this was published:
"Our design team is well versed in helping builders with their design process and finding a suitable paint shop that meets the requirements of your project. Our design team will work with you to create a unique design, select colors, help with interior color selections, and find a paint shop (or assist if you want to paint yourself). We provide design specs and paint masks or stencils as shown to help with your paint layout and it's very affordable at a flat rate of $1600 for that service. Plus you get me as a phone a friend when you need some quick tips! Our design team designs all aircraft types, not just for what we paint. We only paint about 1 out of every 15 we design. "

FLIGHT CHOPS DISCLAIMER:
I am a "weekend warrior" private pilot, I fly for fun with no intentions of going commercial. I have had my PPL for over 20 years, but still consider each flight a learning experience - I generally take detailed notes after each flight to remind myself what went well or what I could do to improve.... Having GoPro cameras to record flights like this is invaluable. I find these self analysis videos very helpful in my constant quest to improve, and am happy to share. Feedback is invited; however, please keep it positive.
