Good job, Luke!!

"Panel Marker, Survival, Aviation Personnel"

36"x36" Blaze Orange signal panel on a very fine silk or rayon type material, compresses down to about the size of a golf ball in its packaging. VERY visible, and VERY small when packed. Could probably fit in a film can or stow loose over everything else to minimize rattles.

Beats the heck out of a VS-17 Panel for personal survival use.

NDD, just kidding, and wondering where to get them and how much. But if you do start up the sweatshop idea, I want in!

"Built for Survival by People Practicing it Everyday!"
