for the placards showing the weights, speeds and so

inside of the fuselage. They put a clear plastic coating
on the top of the stickers that ends up rolling at
the corners from my shoulders rubbing on them while
flying. I am starting to think that I might have to
design my own and then take them to a sign shop to
have them made.......

Placards including weights have to be made locally, because the
weights depend on the weight and balance of the particular glider,
which can change over time due to refinishing, repairs etc.
I have used normal paper, but laminated in plastic by a local
supplier.Alternatively there are techniques (dye sublimation ?) for
printing on prepared thin sheet aluminium. Check with your local
trophy engraving shop.
