FAR 45.23, 25, 27 & 29 seem to cover all aspects of size and location= of marks, etc.

But I can't find any reference requiring a particula= r color contrast between the airframe color and the mark color. Do the N Nu= mbers need to be visible/distinguishable from a certain minimum distance? B= lack marks on a white airframe might be most visible from a distance compared t= o light cream colored marks on a white airframe.

I plan to have pret= ty basic contrasting N Numbers on 4ZQ for the inspection but what about dow= n the road when I get a bit more creative? I wonder if any color combinatio= ns have actually been rejected by FAA.
