I don't want to discourage anyone, just to give a word of warning.  I
started a set of homebuilt videotapes on a trip through members of an
email
list I once belonged to.  The idea was to view the videotape, then record
some footage of your own airplane onto the end of the tape and pass it on
to
the next member.  The tape included a list of members and addresses, so
you
just put a check mark next to your name when you received it.  It worked
great through the first 20 or so members, then it got lost.  No one could
track it, so no one knows who didn't pass the tapes (there were now three)
on to the next.
It might be a good idea to make a route and confirm each stop before
starting such a project.  Perhaps add a web page to track where the book
has
been and where it is going.  That way if someone got busy and forgot to
"pass the torch", the next recipient could send a reminder.
I regret that I don't have a 'coupe yet.  This would be fun, and I'd love
to
see where the logbook travels.  With a little perseverance that book could
take a ride in almost every flying 'coupe in the US.

Rick
