Greetings from Sightline!

Sightline is a team of Airfield Marking Consultants. We don't paint; instead we are marking experts, working with the industry to improve marking systems worldwide.

The purpose of this seasonal publication, if it is new to you, is to inform about issues regarding airport markings. Thanks to all of you who subscribed through our website at sightline.us.

It actually is feeling like spring which means it's painting season! If you haven't done so already, check out our locations for training at our 2011 Airfield Marking Symposiums below. Enjoy the articles!
