Default Remove before flight tags

Anyone know who I can get these from? I tried the search function.. no help. I email one guy a few weeks back but I guess I deleted his address by accident. Any help here?

thanks

I see them every year at the Reno Air Races.

Click Here

There are tons on things out there with that slogan on them. Use a search engine to search the internet for "remove before flight", I've even seen ladies panties for sale with this slogan printed on them.

I got two up at Wright Patterson. They are off of a C-17.
Only trouble is they are 12 feet long.
Makes for a storage problem after removal.
You can also sue them for towing.

Only kidding. I check my top locks frequently.

Here's mine - got them from Jim (Cajun2KC5) a few days ago. On the back has the word "Corvette" in the correct font.

They are just a novelty, nothing more. And a reminder to lock your targa roof before takeoff
