Greg, When I edited Coupe Capers for a few years, back in the early '90s, I made up a "You are invited to look as much as you like but PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH" sign. It was printed in Coupe Capers on a page that people could photo copy, hand enter their own plane statistics, and laminate to keep in the plane.
The original was done in PageMaker and I'm having a difficult time recreating it in Microsoft Word so I can send it as an attachment to you all. I'll try to do it, yet. In the mean time, the body text is here in an attachment (Microsoft Word 6) with slight updating of contact information.
