Brett82 Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Hi all I am going to order some vinyl prints with my FAI ID code to put on the flap of my gliders. It is a requirement for the Eurotour comps so if anyone else requires some do you want me to order some for you at the same time? Looks like the work out at £2.76 each (not sure what postage is going to be but we can split that between anyone interested and there may be a discount for buying more). Its the best site I have found to get them from as you can set the height required (25 mm) and it works out the rest of the dimension automatically. Check out the screenshot below. I want to order buy the end of the weekend so let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil.Taylor Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 I've used "signsbypost" on ebay many times for vinyl lettering - all sorts of sizes & fonts & colours available search for them on ebay - or try this link: http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Ponty-Prints-Signs-by-post/1-inch-25mm-high-/_i.html?_fsub=2732464018&_sid=111407848&_trksid=p4634.c0.m322 Phil. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brett82 Posted May 23, 2018 Author Share Posted May 23, 2018 Thanks Phil The price for 9 letters is slightly more on the ebay one but only just so still worth a look. The place I have put the screen shot of also do loads of fonts and colours, that was just an example. Some colours you can even choose from gloss, matt or metallic.

Brett82 Posted May 30, 2018 Author Share Posted May 30, 2018 Credit where credit is due... if anyone needs stickers I would definitely recommend https://www.vinylletteringonline.co.uk/ I ordered them on Monday (bank holiday) and they arrived today, Wednesday. With postage, four cost a little over £13 and at the checkout stage I was offered a free squidgy. Took less than 5 minutes to clean the wing and apply them without any issues. Hundreds of fonts and loads of colours to choose from and so easy to order. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your FAI-ID is: 124015 Tobias Hi Tobias I thought the same as you so I sent off all three numbers and a screenshot of my FAI licence (on the link mentioned in another post) to Mark and he advised to just use the GBR 200130. To be fair, the place I got them from was so reasonable I could change them if needed. Thanks Andy, as Mark is organising the event I should be OK as I followed his advice. If I win the lotto and go to a comp abroad I will get it checked, just in case. Brett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
