I like the numbers on the tail boom. I don't want national flags.

Happy 4th Guys !!

I need you guys to speak up on this .

I just realized that the full spectrum of numbers will be about 40 digits . I will try to keep the numbers around 10 so you will have options .
0-1-2-3-4 x 2
The most popular seems to be the stencil style white 20 and red 23 ( look at the pics ) . The numbers are open on top and bottom .

How does this work for the rest of you ?

So far I am thinking of making the instrument dial faces as stickers . The yellow and black warning flash as a decal along with the 3 red stars ( with white ).

It depends on the price I get back from Jackson ( Lair ) on the decals.

The numbers will be stencil so you can paint them white , yellow , blue , black or red.

If you all do want the stencil style I need the font style so I can give to my graphic guy.

If I do not get feed back I will just go with what I have and you can work with what I supply.

Not trying to be a hard azz but all this takes time and effort and I only want to do it once.

So you guys need to speak up.

What you are proposing sounds good to me. Stencils on the tail boom and decals for the markings.
