Bill,

I agree with you and hence I will be putting the 3-inch numbers on my Lancair.  The 12-inch that I now have are just darn too ugly!   According to my flight test records, the maximum cruising speed that I have attained is 197.30 Knots TAS at 6,500 msl, at a CAS of 175 Knots.   When the time comes to go to Bahamas, I will probably simply purchase one of those '200-knot' duct tape/masking tape for temporary 12-inch numbers.  Best regards,
Rick Argente
