Unless you move your plane out of the Circle Of Doom.

§45.29 Size of marks. (h) After March 7, 1988, each operator of an aircraft penetrating an ADIZ or DEWIZ must display on that aircraft temporary or permanent nationality and registration marks at least 12 inches high.
They changed the Circle-of-Doom from an ADIZ to a “Special Flight Rules Area” (SFRA) in 2008. There’s no mention of SFRAs in Part 45.
And if you have small numbers on your plane and want to cross an ADIZ, you can keep you small number and attach a temporary 12 inch Number. You know like N714RV

It might be that Canada requires the 12 inchers (if memory serves).......seems like I remember reading that somewhere when we bought Mighty Mouse up in TD's slice?

Looks like about 2+ hour flight for me. If it works out, perhaps we could coordinate a viewing. That would be a fun day to meet up and give the old gal a look see but it'd be a 4 hour run for me (+/- a little) and I can't roam that far from home right now because of Cindy's mom. Anybody in the market for a mother-in-law???? We'll let her go free to a good home.
