I did the original artwork and made his avatar. It's in Illustrator. He wanted a '40s style logo for Retro Aviation Inc, for his truck project.

I would think an A. & P. scholarship would be a great idea, funding in perpetuity would be tough as it would take a sizable endowment to create the necessary yearly funding to make it worthwhile.


Instead of an A&P scholarship, how about sending someone here to learn the art of metalshaping?
http://www.lazzemetalshaping.com/

There's also this place, but looks to be steel instead of aluminum based:
https://www.tinmantech.com/html/worksho ... #intensive

I think either would be easier to fund on a yearly basis. What say you guys?

Retro Aviation stickers? I'll sure as heck snatch up a few. Sooner the better, too .... although I dare to predict that my enthusiasm for them won't die for years to come. Better make 'em UV-resistant if at all possible tho' I'll happily take what I can get. THANKS for offering!

Good God, I'm still ALL fupped duck over this. Just can't believe it. :(
