Europa-List: Lexan v. Plexiglas

Hi All,

I'm on the verge of vacuum forming wingtip lighting covers suitable for
those nifty combo landing light, strobe, and LED position lights made by
CreativAir and am uncertain whether to do so in lexan or plexiglas.

I'd prefer the lexan for strength but seem to recall that polycarbonate
tends to yellow with age...or perhaps that only occurred w/ the early
formulations of the material.

Does anyone have any insights which might help me decide?
