BCP wall posters...buy em now

Quite a few of these left. I mostly want to use up the cardboard tubes I purchased for shipping them. On sale now, free sticker included!

I think you're a slight bit biased.

Zane,
Would you be willing to update the community on the poster orders? I’m assuming that poster sales help the site? Or alternatively, lack of poster sales hurts BCP? :?

What kind of update would you like? Plan is to start shipping April 2. The posters are being printed now by my supplier.

I get into the black at about 30 pieces sold, which accounts for postage and cardboard tubes, but not my time. I'm currently showing 32 pieces ordered. 8)

It's a fun experiment. The profit is not much. I'd say the buzz of selling branded merch motivates me to work on the site more. I'm proud of that photo and am still mesmerized staring at it because of how the mountains look and how much viz there was that day. What an awesome trip.

I will probably print the Taylorcraft on the Knik one next, once (if) these sell out. I'm currently working on a new hat order too, but given past experience I'm being more analytical about it.

Couple of posters ordered. It was such an awesome flight. Seeing that poster will be a great reminder of just how lucky I am to be part of such a great community.
Cheers to BCP

Yep, you covered it. I was mostly curious if members were ordering them. It is a mesmerizing photo that draws me in with wonder and awe.

Re: BCP wall posters...buy em now

I really like the photo, but I don't have any place to put up a poster that large. I frankly had forgotten how gorgeous the Chugach Range is. I gotta get back there someday before I fly west!

Re: BCP wall posters...buy em now

First batch shipping out today. More would be going but I'm really getting crushed by my day job work. Orders will trickle out the next few days.

Thanks for your patience!

Re: BCP wall posters...buy em now

I would welcome the idea of more posters. I am building a house, but am not really good with decorative touches.

So I figure I will cover the walls with galvanized corrugated metal and wood shiplap ( or similar).

Then I can just cover that with aviation posters and sectionals.

If I get enough posters and stuff for total coverage, I may just forget the metal and shiplap and just use OSB. :mrgreen:

Re: BCP wall posters...buy em now

Received the posters. They are nice! Need a lot of wall space because they are so huge :)

The posters are big. Great action for the shop wall.
