6-1. PURPOSE. Conspicuity and arctic markingUSAF aircraJt with fluorescent paint, Specification MIL-P21563, or fluorescent film. Specification MIL-F22735, is to provide USAF piLots with a method for quick visual detection of other aircraJt. The primary purpese of conspicuity markings is to avoid mid-air collisions whereas arctic markings are applied for the purpose of locating downed aircraft. For specific conspicui.ty and arctic marking data see figures 3-?
through 3-54.
NOTE Actirre combat force "strike" aircraft applies to aircraft assigned offensive mis-

Arctic ll'Iarkings. Either of the twofoilowing materials shall be used for conspicuity or arctic markings.
6-2. Conspicuity Marking Requirements. AircraJt in the follorving categories shall be required to have
conspicuity markings:
. a. Fluorescent paint, Specification MIL-P-21563, red-orange, Color No. 633. Refer to T.O. 1-1-8 for application of fluorescent paint. b. Pressure sensitive fluorescent film, Specification MIL-F-22?35, red-orange, Color No. 633.

NOTE
6-6. Application of Fluorescent Film, Specification MIL-F-22735. Fluorescent film is a plastic film that 'incorporates all the required components of a fiuorescent system. It is precoated with a pressure serrsitive adhesive for ease of application. The adhesive is protected by a paper line which is removed without the use of water or other solvent.

6-3. Arctic Marking Requirements. Aircraft assigned operate beyond the zone of interior (reference T.O. 00-60A-1) shall be arctic marked,usingpatterns as contained in figures 3-? through 3-54.
6-4. Arctic Marking Exemptions. Aircraft in the following cate gories are exempt from compliance with the arctic marking requirements.
NOTE Avoid as much as possible applicatiorr of fluorescent film to aircraft surfaces with raised head rivets, or to areas directly subjected to hot exhaust gases, Specification LIIL-L-?808 lubrlcant or synthetic oils, or to JP-4 fuel leaI<s.

FiIm may be applied on vertical or horizontal sections of fuseIage depending on size and contour of aircraft. If applied vertically, start application of flrst section ai trailing edge of area to be marked and apply succeeding sections toward forward edge of pattern area. Apply horizontal sections to fuselige by starting at base and applying succeeding sections to top.

NOTE Trimming of film is required around windows or to fit withi,n a special desigrn. In case of wi.ndow area, apply film up to t/2' inch of a window. Proper procedure for trimming is to stop appllcation several inches from edge to be trimmed. Place two-inch wide piece of aluminum (covered with masking tape to prevent scratching aircraft skin) under edge of film to be trimmed. Lay another straight edge on top of fitra and trim with sharp blade (see E, figure 6-1). Remove aluminum cuttlng guides and squeegee film to surface.
b. Where contour of aircralt surface exceeds ability of film to conform without wrinkling, cut film in narrower strips or to specific shape determined by paper pattern. Size and shape will be governed by the degree of compound curvature. To prepare paper pattern, Iay tracing or masking paper on curved area
move approximately two feet of paper, crease paper (do not cut) (see F, figure 6-1). Squeegee film to surface and continue removing paper liner in short sections and apptying film (see G, figure 6-1).
