Instrument Panel Color
I must be missing something here since I'm never annoyed by glare from
my white shirt (another contributor mentioned only wearing dark
clothes). I wonder if all the objections are based upon observation or
simply conjecture. Have you actually seen "the glare from a white
panel"? The sky blue panel in my ASW-19b was never a problem.

The glare from a white panel will make it much harder to see outside the aircraft, but nobody looks outside these days, eh Dan? I am obviously against reducing the ability to see outside the cockpit. A clean canopy is also an important thing, and often overlooked in the preflight. He could repaint it, after seeing how bad it is, but he won't get around to it for some time, and while he is flying around with all that glare, he will be less able to see his fellow pilots around him. A white panel is a very bad idea. Grey, dark blue, or some other darkish color is fine, but not white.
