    The exterior surface of the envelope must be of a contrasting color 

or colors so that it will be conspicuous during operation. However, 

multicolored banners or streamers are acceptable if it can be shown that 

they are large enough, and there are enough of them of contrasting 

color, to make the balloon conspicuous during flight.
