Default New decal available mainly for my "UP NORTH" customers "Strictly Canadian".

Now available.

Loosely based on various Canadian aircraft like the Twin Otter and the Buffalor but adaptable to a rocket.

http://www.excelsiorrocketry.com/pr...?id_product=781

Since it's a "NEW PRODUCT" it's over on the right side of my home page.

Easy to find on my site in "scratch building" or just do a search.
Just type in "Canadian" in the search window.

U.S. customers can order them too.

If anyone sees any changes I should make to them please, let me know.

Very nice! Great to see that you've included the Canada wordmark that adorns many a Canadian space robot. Shall have to get me some of these soon.

Are there any changes, addition or deletions I should make?

Also, one additional note for Canadian customers.

You may notice, or you may not...that I don't include the PayPal receipt with your orders like I do for U.S. customers.

This is to avoid any "problems" with Canadian postal authorities.

If you need a receipt, you can easily print one from your PayPal account.

I see no point in paying GST or PST in such a small order.

It would be really nice to see the Canadian Space Agency "meatball" logo added. Other suggestions would be for the addition of the Bristol/Magellan Aerospace and Bombardier Aerospace logos. Also, some might quibble about the inclusion of the word "Armed" in "Canadian Armed Forces" as it's usually just "Canadian Forces" these days; though the National Defence (note the CanEnglish spelling please!) Act states "The Canadian Forces are the armed forces of Her Majesty raised by Canada and consist of one Service called the Canadian Armed Forces."

And if you were thinking of adding, uh, "commercial payload launch sponsor" decals, you could never go wrong with Tim Hortons, Blackberry, Canadian Tire and Molson Canadian logos!

I'm working on the "meatball".

Not sure about the commercial logos. Don't wanna get involved with copyright stuff.

Gotta be careful sometimes.

Now should I change "CANADIAN ARMED FORCES" to "CANADIAN FORCES" or just leave it and you can remove it with scissors?

Scissors? We Canadians use hobby knives made from specially sharpened beaver incisors. That being said though, I suppose it makes sense to leave "Armed" in. Thanks!

OK, here are the latest changes in the decal set.

I don't have it changed yest on my web site but that can wait in case there are more changes.

Sorry for the jpeg image.

The decals are a very clean vector drawing but I can't post that here.

The CSA meat ball looks way way better on the decal.

I included 4 CSA meatballs and 3 extra maple leaf meatballs.
