Thank you Glenn. Ernie spent a few hours trying to find ouit what font this is. The designer didn't remember (it had been 6-7 years).

got a job to do the other day..........i been doing his trucks since 1998. brings me a business card, designed and layout done by a family memeber who does some web page design. wish he would came to me to get this new design for his business, but so now i gota work at this. 1st thing i asked was for "the file" of the BC. OK... he got me that .......well is a png/jpeg/all bitmap. then iask if the BC designer can tell him the fonts he used???? nope(((( so i have to translate a bitmap font, with a small graphic to all VECTOR and single colors so it can be cut. then the guy asked me how to get the old vinyl off..........i explained I DONT WANT TO DO THAT!!!! heat gun, razor blades, and hours)))))so this is the result of hunting fonts, redrawing the green,red, blue thin in corel draw and tracing the word AIR from business card....

Diane,
It reminds me of Mirage (Letterheadfonts.com).

What The Font didn't come close, even suggested Zapf Chancery.

Diane, maybe it was handmade and the reproduced, never named?

All I can say is that's it's way too fat for my taste...I bet from a distance the center of the "e" is lost as well as some of the other letter centers...but as I understand it's the customer's request and you don't an option.

Glenn, this has to be Mirage only altered. Strokes are thickened and possibly modified.

Glenn I found out from Letterhead fonts that it was LHF Mirage, that font is no longer sold, they said it needs to be redrawn.
we convinced the ladies who want their new sign to use a different font. Thanks for your help.
