Who would know what color scheme the first National Parks Airways Fokker Super Universals were which operated on these initial flights from Great Falls to Salt Lake City? Orange is referenced in the narrative in this documentary. I have seen "Battleship Gray" in a period news story at one point in my research. Their first triangle logo which was used in 1928 was Dark Blue, Red and White.
