    --> Commander-List message posted by: JBOBSTER@aol.com Scheme Designers gets my vote as well! Had my 182 painted last April with an existing scheme designers scheme ( got permission of the ownere and scheme designers, cost was minimal) and has Sunquest at Paine do the work. Yes, this still makes me a Commander wannabe....but my 182 will sell well when I finally step up! Jim Carroll Seattle
