   Subject: 2004 Color Forecast for Transportation


   Chuck,
    
   Here are the forecast colors for 2004 from the Color 
Marketing Group for the transportation industry.  Perhaps this assist your
   clients when faced with the color decision for their aircraft.  
These are colors that will be introduced into the industry. 
   Consumer preferences dictates their popularity.  One of the great 
things about colors in the transportation industry is that they
   are colors that are certain to be around for some time.  Reason 
being as they have been accepted by both the male and female
   gender.  Please advise your clients that as an Interior Designer 
I would be happy to work with them on narrowing down the
   choices for their paint and interior selections.  Unifying the 
outside to inside will insure your airplane will display a professional
   custom appearance.  This process can be overwhelming and I can 
elevate that frustration by channeling their preferences and
   needs.  Together we can come up with a beautifully personalized 
scheme that will be timeless and as a result their aircraft will
   have a new look longer, "be in style for a quite a while" if you 
will and perhaps avoid costly mistakes of using out dated materials.

Pittsburgh, and has universal appeal. It is an expansion of the cool metals.

technical and genderless.
