You are absoutely correct on the numbers MUST be 12" high to leave the
U.S.
As you stated, I have seen people use adhesive backed numbers and stick
them
on if they leave the U.S., then remove them when they come home.
The post I like best was the "Mandated BAR CODE" I hope the FAA does not
see
that, or they just make it mandatory!
