Maybe the Eagle at the top holds the envelope instead of the swastika? Just something that popped into my mind looking at the drawing.

Now there is an idea, I like that

Damnation to me Ive missed the boat.
Tasmania would have been almost the most Southern point on the planet It would have got to.
Next time may-be.

Tis a shame Dave, it would have been only a small deviation down from Tony in Sydney and then across to us in the west.

Yep Dave but I noticed what was happening far to late.
What a top idea. Next time gents.
Cheers

Ahh bugger, sorry mate. I'd love to make an exception but I've had quite a few pm's from people wishing to be involved who missed out. I'd feel bad if I sneaked anyone else aboard

Maybe the 2000 lid

Quick update, I doodled out a very rough prototype logo for the front of the lid (while I should have been working, it's quiet today though

). I tried to make it in the vein of German wartime awards. I like the way they have an image of something relevant to the award in the badge like a flak gun or tank etc. I used the envelope icon for a post/thread, with the 'WRF' font something like the DRL sports badge.

This will probably change a bit before I paint it onto the lid. I'm not happy with the eagle on this version.

I don't think it's a good idea to have a swastika IMO

You mean Rene that a customs check somewhere may stop it in it's tracks?? ..... good point, I therefore agree ( even though I'm not part of it ... this time ) that the envelope is a better idea .... "mailed on eagles wings"

Now THAT's truly what I call 'LUFTPOST'!!!!!!!!!!!!!
