I just can't get over imagining a small piece of those huge sheets of plastic starting to separate at 200mph and the potential catastrophic effects.

Blow off
I have never noticed the decals coming off a transport truck going down the highway or the side of an ambulance peeling off. Really cant imagine that is reasonable risk.
I am interested in how they hold up over time with the weather, freeze thaw, expand contract etc. Will see.

Good enough for 'multiple' Fed's, good enough for me:

Thanks Greg. I get over to a Twin Oaks about three times a year to cashier at breakfast. September will be the next time. We work Saturdays, so many fly-ins are out for us. Email Bruce at wilsonvillediamond dot com and we can get together at Aurora Sundays or Mondays.
Cheers!

That looks great. Thank you for sharing your project. Does anyone know if there are any companies that provide this service in Australia, preferably Victoria?

There is in fact an advantage to wraps, they can come to you! I would much prefer the applicators coming to my air conditioned clean airplane factory to install it! I can just see them arriving by commercial air or their own plane, crawling out with an arm full of rolls of vinyl, and a couple of days later leaving me with a completed plane wrap!
At least I THINK it can work that way.
