Thanks for the great idea. I have a friend who does engraving. Was
not looking forward to sticking that god awful looking sticker on each
door. I'll have him make up some nice looking aluminum pacards about
the same size you made. He can do them in most colors. Anyone else
interested, let me know. I attached one of my HUGE pics, sorry,
haven't had time to do the conversion....

That's OK Don .... thanks to Tim it's a piece of cake to do it on my

end!!!! Send more huge pictures.
BTW, I'm interested.

Since I was doing a custom interior, I didn't really want to use the
standard "Experimental" sticker or the size of the letters. I checked
with EAA about the FAR and what is really required. They told me the wording
has to be at all passenger entrances into the aircraft. The great thing I found
out was that the only size requirement for the EXERIMENTAL is it has to be at
least 2" tall and not taller than 6". This was perfect. I used my
computer and condensed the wording down to a 6" length but still had the
2" height. A wood placard was made with the lettering engraved in it and
will be inset into the upper interior door panel. I attached some pictures on
what I did.

The intent of that statement I believe, is to show that there is as much if not more care put into the construction of most experimental aircraft. As far as the maintenance requirements they are the same, and after observing some of the work performed by "Certified" mechanics, no thanks...But Just in case....I want to thank Cessna, Piper, Mooney and all of the other "certified" manufacturers of aircraft for leading the way and providing the bar of excellence we all need to strive for...Who knows how Spaceship one could have ever succeeded making into space if it wasn't for these companies establishing the standards for all of us to strive for.

As for me, I'll just cobble along with my project ever so grateful for this newly found entity I have failed to thank each night in my prayers. And yes, My therapist is helping me through my sarcastic attitude. Smile

Just my two cents...or 7 cents Canadian..
