How do portable electronics effect an airplane?

To be able to read lettering at 1500', lettering should be 36" tall. Bigger would be easier to read. As a font size, it would depend on the font. I don't have Adobe Illustrator here at home, so I can't tell you what the font size would be at 36" for common fonts. Typically large signs like this would be created in Adobe Illustrator with the fonts outlined so you can scale them to any size without losing quality.
