Clear aircraft are an excellent idea and very easy to paint. You simply put a drop of masking fluid on the cockpit and use a black primer as a first layer. I'm using Vallejo bl;ck from the rattle can. Put on you favourite whites and grays for the next layer ,gloss-decal-matt next and you have an aircraft. Black is all you ca see of an interior in '700 or '350 anyway.

BOY, Who came up with the idea of making clear plastic planes??

And How do you paint them?? I getting ready to prime them, But, if I remember, I heard that you would paint them an interior color firs ( the whole plane? ) then paint the base color of the plane.

OH, I deal with 1/700 planes.

Thanks for your time.
