[simpits-tech] Back Projection Material

I am up to about version 5 of my "how am I going to do my 
visuals"....  And this time I am looking at rear projection, so that 
I can get the screen nice and close to the nose of the A-4, without 
loosing any of the image on things like canopy rails.

I plan on mounting the projector under the pilots feet, aiming 
forward to a mirror, then back onto the rear projection screen.  I 
figure I can keep the angles such that I shouldn't get any "hot spot" 
from directly seeing the centre of the lens.. I hope.

Anyone have any clever tips on the sort of material I should be looking at?

I have some really really nice stuff at work, proper space age rear 
pro screen material.. but I comes at a real space age price too... 
and I think it's a little small for my project.  I am looking for an 
approximately 6' x 4' screen (or 1.6m x 1.2m for those of a metric persuasion).

Thoughts, ideas, suggestions?
