Bryan and all, Wife Mary and I will be there, no later than Sunday, April 2nd. We will be camping in the Homebuilt camping area. Feel free to drop by, if you see Baby Blue. Always ready to visit with
This is the simplist way to go about it. Being in the graphics business, I cut my own, but any graphics of vinyl sign shop will probably give you all the scraps you want. Simply cut with scissors, pe
Interesting thread. Mary and I returned from Sun-N-Fun, today with a loaded plane. N55XS was listed at 1450 lbs gross, when our AW cert. was issued and I can guarantee that we were at that weight for
Richard, I've used the etch-type auto primers on aluminum signs, without a problem. These signs see the sun, all day... Jeff - N55XS 164 hours may not be the best way to go. I'm also looking as Etch
