Tires are naturally white. Black (carbon??) is added to the rubber to make the tires black.

Thanks!  I did not realize that.  Very interesting.   :aok

According to this article for N167F, it appears that Bud Anderson's "whitewalls" were painted on with "white barn paint."

What part of KY did the "Berlin Express" land in?  I would hate if I missed it landing here at Louisville.

berlin express did not fly on Sunday because of the canopy issue. 

Klingan said on Saturday it took off went around once and then hurried back and landed because the cockpit came off.    :(
