All,
I'm in the middle of designing the interior for my RV-10 and I've pretty much decided on a black panel with british tan/black seats and british tan side panels and accents.
One thing I thought would be great is using black headliner for the interior, sort of like a sports car.
I've noticed that not many people use black headliner, although it does exist from manufacturers. Is there any sort of reason for that?
As I live in AZ and have black vehicles with black leather interiors, I can honestly tell you that the old "black attracts heat" adage is simply a myth. Studies have shown that black holds heat almost identically as colors and in reality, its the greenhouse effect which makes a car super hot. That's why tint is the #1 way to keep a car cool here.
With that being said, does black make a plane interior seem smaller? is it out of convention that black isn't used? Is it distracting?
Thanks!
